68  *  Segments
69  *
70  *    `ta_{cjk,latin,...}_hints_compute_segments' are the functions to
71  *    find segments in an outline.
72  *
73  *    A segment is a series of at least two consecutive points that are
74  *    approximately aligned along a coordinate axis.  The analysis to do
75  *    so is specific to a writing system.
76  *
77  *
78  *  Edges
79  *
80  *    `ta_{cjk,latin,...}_hints_compute_edges' are the functions to find
81  *    edges.
82  *
83  *    As soon as segments are defined, the auto-hinter groups them into
84  *    edges.  An edge corresponds to a single position on the main
85  *    dimension that collects one or more segments (allowing for a small
86  *    threshold).
87  *
88  *    As an example, the `latin' writing system first tries to grid-fit
89  *    edges, then to align segments on the edges unless it detects that
90  *    they form a serif.

106  *
107  *  Stems
108  *
109  *    Stems are detected by `ta_{cjk,latin,...}_hint_edges'.
110  *
111  *    Segments need to be `linked' to other ones in order to detect stems.
112  *    A stem is made of two segments that face each other in opposite
113  *    directions and that are sufficiently close to each other.  Using
114  *    vocabulary from the TrueType specification, stem segments form a
115  *    `black distance'.
116  *
117  *    In the above ASCII drawing, the horizontal segments are BC, DE, and
118  *    FG; the vertical segments are AB, CD, EF, and GH.
119  *
120  *    Each segment has at most one `best' candidate to form a black
121  *    distance, or no candidate at all.  Notice that two distinct segments
122  *    can have the same candidate, which frequently means a serif.
123  *
124  *    A stem is recognized by the following condition:
125  *
126  *      best segment_1 = segment_2 && best segment_2 = segment_1
127  *
128  *    The best candidate is stored in field `link' in structure
129  *    `TA_Segment'.
130  *
131  *    In the above ASCII drawing, the best candidate for both AB and CD is
132  *    GH, while the best candidate for GH is AB.  Similarly, the best
133  *    candidate for EF and GH is AB, while the best candidate for AB is
134  *    GH.
135  *
136  *    The detection and handling of stems is dependent on the writing
137  *    system.
138  *
139  *
140  *  Serifs
141  *
142  *    Serifs are detected by `ta_{cjk,latin,...}_hint_edges'.
143  *
144  *    In comparison to a stem, a serif (as handled by the auto-hinter
145  *    module that takes care of the `latin' writing system) has
146  *
147  *      best segment_1 = segment_2 && best segment_2 != segment_1
148  *
149  *    where segment_1 corresponds to the serif segment (CD and EF in the
150  *    above ASCII drawing).
151  *
152  *    The best candidate is stored in field `serif' in structure
153  *    `TA_Segment' (and `link' is set to NULL).
154  *
155  *
156  *  Touched points
157  *
158  *    A point is called `touched' if it has been processed somehow by the
159  *    auto-hinter.  It basically means that it shouldn't be moved again
160  *    (or moved only under certain constraints to preserve the already
161  *    applied processing).
162  *
163  *
164  *  Flat and round segments
165  *
166  *    Segments are `round' or `flat', depending on the series of points
167  *    that define them.  A segment is round if the next and previous point
168  *    of an extremum (which can be either a single point or sequence of
169  *    points) are both conic or cubic control points.  Otherwise, a
170  *    segment with an extremum is flat.
171  *
172  *
173  *  Strong Points
174  *
175  *    Experience has shown that points not part of an edge need to be
176  *    interpolated linearly between their two closest edges, even if these
177  *    are not part of the contour of those particular points.  Typical
178  *    candidates for this are
179  *
180  *    - angle points (i.e., points where the `in' and `out' direction
181  *      differ greatly)
182  *
183  *    - inflection points (i.e., where the `in' and `out' angles are the
184  *      same, but the curvature changes sign) [currently, such points
185  *      aren't handled specially in the auto-hinter]
186  *
187  *    `ta_glyph_hints_align_strong_points' is the function that takes
188  *    care of such situations; it is equivalent to the TrueType `IP'
189  *    hinting instruction.
190  *
191  *
192  *  Weak Points
193  *
194  *    Other points in the outline must be interpolated using the
195  *    coordinates of their previous and next unfitted contour neighbours.
196  *    These are called `weak points' and are touched by the function
197  *    `ta_glyph_hints_align_weak_points', equivalent to the TrueType `IUP'
198  *    hinting instruction.  Typical candidates are control points and
199  *    points on the contour without a major direction.
200  *
201  *    The major effect is to reduce possible distortion caused by
202  *    alignment of edges and strong points, thus weak points are processed
203  *    after strong points.
