Re: char-displayable-p issue

[Michael Mauger <mmaug@yahoo.com>]

You can ignore the first patch -- the second one supercedes it.  I should
have clearer about that.

No rush -- I realize this is a significant change to a very complex and
critical piece of code.

Below is a correct version of the ChangeLog entry:

2003-10-27  Michael Mauger  <mmaug@yahoo.com>

	* w32fns.c (w32_normalize_xlfd): Added function.  Expands a
	partial XLFD specification into a fully qualified specification by
	filling in wildcards. Translates Windows-specific font format to a
	fully qualified XLFD specification.
	(w32_get_xlfd_field): Added function.  Returns a portion of a XLFD
	specification.
	(w32_to_x_font): Use "*" rather than "unknown" for unknown XLFD
	FOUNDRY.  Use "*" when FAMILY is empty.
	(x_to_w32_font): Rewritten.  Use `w32_normalize_xlfd' and
	`w32_get_xlfd_field' to parse XLFD string properly.
	(xlfd_strip_height): Rewrote to simplify and correct.
	(w32_font_match): Normalize XLFD pattern before stripping height
	or converting to a regex.  Because the pattern is fully qualified,
	wildcards now match "[^-]*" rather than ".*" as it did before.
	(w32_list_fonts): If face name has no wildcards then use it in
	Windows FontEnum to reduce the number of fonts enumerated.
