Acknowledgments
***************

Many thanks are owed to Werner Lemberg for writing the code underlying
the '--rounding' option; for introducing the *glyph_name* command and
'asis' encoding vector; for providing the default FontForge script
listed in Note: Additional command-line options; for fixing some
code-generation bugs in 'mf2pt1'; for finding a more robust way to dump
'mf2pt1.mem'; for directing me to the overlap-removal code mentioned in
Note: Restrictions; for supplying the _crossproduct_, _makeline_, and
_is_clockwise_ functions used by 'mf2pt1.mp'; for proposing the '--bpppix'
command-line option; and, for suggesting various features and
improvements to 'mf2pt1'.  Thanks also go to Werner Lemberg and Boguslaw
Jackowski for updating the *is_clockwise* function in 'mf2pt1.mp' to
work around a bug in MetaPost which relates to the *turningnumber*
command.  Finally, thanks go to Ralf Stubner for providing the T1
encoding vector and for pointing out a typo in the generated font
programs; to Michael Zedler for alerting me to problems with '--encoding'
and suggesting I modify that option to accept PostScript '.enc' files;
and to Michael Ummels for fixing a couple of bugs that made character
widths in the generated fonts slightly too large.
