i’ve used rdoc with the option -d, i get the graphviz output images
howver i get this message also :
Diagrams: .Error: Could not find/open font : Arial
.Error: Could not find/open font : Arial
this font is on my computer :
%> ls -al /Library/Fonts gives :
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 21 2005 Arial
then i wonder if their is a env var to setup for ruby ??? and/or for
Graphviz about fonts directory “Library/Fonts” ???

I think that Arial is normally not found on OS X but there are similar
sans-serif fonts that are no worse than Arial.
Thanks

Hmm I think OS X does something funky with it’s fonts:
logan:/Library/Fonts% ls -l | grep Arial
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Arial
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Arial Black
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Arial Narrow
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Arial Rounded Bold
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 38476 Mar 1 2005 ArialHB.ttf
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 38136 Mar 1 2005 ArialHBBold.ttf
logan:/Library/Fonts% ls -l | awk ‘$5 ~ /^0$/ { print }’
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Andale Mono
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Arial
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Arial Black
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Arial Narrow
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Arial Rounded Bold
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Brush Script
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Comic Sans MS
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Courier New
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Georgia
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Impact

-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 Webdings
-rw-r–r-- 1 root admin 0 Nov 6 2005 fonts.cache-1
That’s a lot of empty fonts, and I know I didn’t put them there.

MacOS X follows legacy Macintosh glitches to its detriment,
sometimes. HFS+ supports forked files, and fonts, for legacy
reasons, put their real data in the invisible data fork. eg:
ls -l /Library/Fonts/Arial
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 /Library/Fonts/Arial
ls -l /Library/Fonts/Arial/rsrc
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 317313 Mar 20 2005 /Library/Fonts/Arial/
rsrc

Arial/rsrc
ah OK, fine thanxs !
but in this case why ls doesn’t see a directory, ie i’d have seen
rather :
drw-rw-r-- 1 root admin 0 Mar 20 2005 /Library/Fonts/Arial
–^---- directory isn’t it ?

Because it isn’t a directory, it’s a forked file. A file can have
many forks, and rsrc is just some sort of alias to the “resource”
fork. A directory would have rather different behaviour from a
forked file, and overloading the path notation was thought to be the
best way to handle it. It’s a no-win situation when you think about it.

Perhaps make a copy of the resource fork somewhere?
It should not break anything if you do cat Arial/rsrc >> Arial
Thanks

OK, but why Graphiz isn’t aware of that ?
