.TH FREETYPE-CONFIG 1 "March 2014" "FreeType 2.5.3" . . .SH NAME . freetype-config \- Get information about a libfreetype installation . . .SH SYNOPSIS . .B freetype-config .RI [ options ] . . .SH DESCRIPTION . .B freetype-config returns information needed for compiling and linking programs with the FreeType library, such as linker flags and compilation parameters. . Alternatively, it can be used to query information about the FreeType library version installed on the system, such as the installation (directory path) prefix or the FreeType version number. . .PP This program is part of the FreeType package. . . .SH OPTIONS . There are two types of options: output/display selection options, and path override options. . . .SS Output selection options . Only one of the output selection options should be given at each program invocation. . .TP .B \-\-prefix Return the prefix value of the installed FreeType library (the default prefix will be `/usr' in most cases for distribution-installed packages). . .TP .B \-\-exec-prefix Return the executable prefix value of the installed FreeType library (will often be the same as the prefix value). . .TP .B \-\-ftversion Return the FreeType version number. . .TP .B \-\-version Return the `libtool version' of the FreeType library. . .TP .B \-\-libtool Return the library name for linking with libtool. . .TP .B \-\-libs Return compiler flags for linking with the installed FreeType library. . .TP .B \-\-cflags Return compiler flags for compiling against the installed FreeType library. . .TP .B \-\-static Make command line options display flags for static linking. . . .SS Path override options . These affect any selected output option, except the libtool version returned by `--version'. . .TP .BI \-\-prefix= PREFIX Override `--prefix' value with .IR PREFIX . . .TP .BI \-\-exec-prefix= EPREFIX Override `--exec-prefix' value with .IR EPREFIX . . . .SH BUGS In case the libraries FreeType links to are located in non-standard directories, the output from option .B \-\-libs might be incomplete. It is thus recommended to use the .BR pkg-config (1) interface instead, which is able to correctly resolve all dependencies. . . .SH AUTHOR . This manual page was contributed by Nis Martensen <[email protected]>, with further refinements from the FreeType team. . . .\" eof
