[rrd-developers] rrdtool 1.3 cairo switch is done

[Tobias Oetiker]

Folks,

if you are following rrdtool development ... here is some news:

* replaced libart with cairo/pango this makes for more
  stable graphics output.

* added grid snapping to all lines, the resulting graphs look much
  crisper (see attached examples).

* pango markup is available in all text
  http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/pango/PangoMarkupFormat.html

* global tab stops. tabs on multiple lines are now aligned
  everywhere.

WARNING:

Do not use this for production. it is still under heavy
development.

WARNING II:

At least on AMD64 there seem to be some issues with the new mmaping
code. So configure with --disable-mmap for now.

cheers
