Hi, Tudor.
Yes, i did not implemented support for Strike fonts. Because strike fonts are not scalable, and because no way they can be correctly rendered by Athens: fonts holding a pre-rendered glyph with subpixel accuracy... which working well as long as you don't rotate/scale the bitmap.. and if you do, then output is even worse than gray-scale) So it is useless, and that's why i didn't added support for them in a first place. But if you need it, i can add it. It should be easy to do. Tell me if you need it.
igor if this is simple may be this would be good so that people can get started and put more pressure on you.
I am currently working on bundling cairo library with VM i thought it will take less time, but ... this stuff is terrible to compose & build unless you are on linux. I should finish Mac build in a few days (actually i always think that it will be this day, but then yet another idiosyncrasy prevents me from finishing it :)
