-----------------
Major differences between VFlib 3.x and VFlib 2.x
VFlib 2.x was designed only for Japanese Kanji fonts
VFlib 3.6 has been multi-lingualized, so it can handle not only
Japanese Kanji fonts but also fonts for other languages
(e.g. Korean).
Concept of font metrics is introduced in VFlib 3.6
VFlib 2.x does not have the concept of font metrics since it assumes all
characters have the same metrics. Font metrics is introduced in
VFlib 3.6 and proportional fonts can be used now.
Syntax of vflibcap file has been changed
The syntax of vflibcap file is massively revised. VFlib 2.x adopted
termcap-like notation, but now VFlib 3.6 adopts lisp-like
notation.
Arguments and return values of functions have been changed
In VFlib 2.x, bitmaps of characters are written in a frame buffer
which is given by an argument. But in VFlib 3.6, a bitmap object
is returned.
