X-TrueType font server
 This package provide X-TrueType font server. This is compatible normal X
 font server, but added X-TrueType font handling scheme support instead of
 FreeType backend. XFree86 4.0's font server can handle TrueType too, but it
 can not handle TTCap. By using TTCap description, support for font
 transformations, such as slanting, adjusting glyph width, pseudo-bolding, etc.
 .
 xfs-xtt is a daemon that listens on a network port and serves X fonts to X
 servers (and thus to X clients). All X servers have the ability to serve
 locally installed fonts for themselves, but xfs makes it possible to offload
 that job from the X server, and/or have a central repository of fonts on a
 networked machine running xfs so that all the machines running X servers on
 a network do not require their own set of fonts. xfs may also be invoked
 by users to, for instance, make available X fonts in user accounts that
 are not available to the X server or to an already running system xfs-xtt.
