Fontconfig ships with eight command line utilities to manage and query fonts and the font configuration of the system: fc-list: Lists all fonts fontconfig knows about or all fonts matching a pattern. fc-match: Matches font-pattern (empty pattern by default) using the normal fontconfig matching rules to find the most appropriate font available.
Binary-code compatibility (binary compatible or object-code compatible) is a property of a computer system, meaning that it can run the same executable code, typically machine code for a general-purpose computer central processing unit (CPU), that another computer system can run.
Source-code compatibility (source-compatible) means that a program can run on computers (or operating systems), independently of binary-code compatibility and that the source code is needed for portability. [1] The source code must be compiled before running, unless the computer used has an interpreter for the language at hand. [2]
As with Cygwin, MSYS2 supports path translation for non-MSYS2 software launched from it. For example one can use the command notepad++ /c/Users/John/file.txt to launch an editor that will open the file with the Windows path C:\Users\John\file.txt. [9] [8] MSYS2 and its bash environment is used by Git and GNU Octave for their official Windows ...
Windows-31J is the most used non-UTF-8/Unicode Japanese encoding on the web. However, many people and software packages, including Microsoft libraries, [7] declare the Shift JIS encoding for Windows-31J data, although it includes some additional characters, and some of the existing characters are mapped to Unicode differently.
Many 16-bit Windows legacy programs can run without changes on newer 32-bit editions of Windows. The reason designers made this possible was to allow software developers time to remedy their software during the industry transition from Windows 3.1 to Windows 95 and later, without restricting the ability for the operating system to be upgraded to a current version before all programs used by a ...
Windows code pages are sets of characters or code pages (known as character encodings in other operating systems) used in Microsoft Windows from the 1980s and 1990s. Windows code pages were gradually superseded when Unicode was implemented in Windows, [citation needed] although they are still supported both within Windows and other platforms, and still apply when Alt code shortcuts are used.
A debug symbol is a special kind of symbol that attaches additional information to the symbol table of an object file, such as a shared library or an executable.This information allows a symbolic debugger to gain access to information from the source code of the binary, such as the names of identifiers, including variables and routines.
