xft-config(1)                                       xft-config(1)



NAME
       xft-config  - report Xft version, compiler, linker, and/or
       installation directory information

SYNOPSIS
       xft-config   {   --exec-prefix[=local_prefix]   |   --pre-
       fix[=local_prefix] | --cflags | --libs } ...

       xft-config --version

DESCRIPTION
       xft-config  reports  information  of interest to users and
       developers about the installed version of the  X  FreeType
       library, Xft(3).  Depending on how it is invoked, xft-con-
       fig reports the installed version of Xft, the compiler and
       linker flags that are required to successfully compile and
       link C (or  C-compatible)  code  that  uses  the  library,
       and/or  the  directories  used  by  the  GNU  Autotools to
       install its files.  Note that if  the  system's  installed
       version  of  Xft  came  from  an  OS vendor or other third
       party, the actual location of its files  may  differ  from
       those reported by xft-config.  The system adminstrator can
       also relocate Xft's files.

       If invoked without any arguments, xft-config will print  a
       usage message on standard error and exit.

OPTIONS
       --cflags
              Report the compiler flags that are required to com-
              pile code that uses Xft symbols.

       --exec-prefix[=local_prefix]
              If specified without  the  parameter  local_prefix,
              report  the file specification prefix that Xft uses
              for   installation   of   executable   files.    If
              local_prefix  is  specified,  it is used instead of
              the file specification prefix used for installation
              of  executable  files  by  Xft and the value of the
              option argument specified with  --prefix,  if  any,
              when  compile  and  linker flags are reported (with
              --cflags and --libs, respectively).

       --libs Report the linker flags that are required  to  link
              code that uses Xft symbols.

       --prefix[=local_prefix]
              If  specified  without  the parameter local_prefix,
              report the file specification prefix that Xft  uses
              for  installation  of  files.   If  local_prefix is
              specified, it is used instead of the file  specifi-
              cation prefix used for installation of files by Xft
              when compile and linker flags  are  reported  (with
              --cflags   and   --libs,  respectively);  also  see
              --exec-prefix.

       --version
              Report the version of the Xft library installed  on
              the system and exit.
