+ ---------------------------------------------------
+ This snapshot provides much better text support by implementing the
+ following four functions:
+ 
+ 	cairo_text_extents
+ 	cairo_glyph_extents
+ 	cairo_text_path
+ 	cairo_glyph_path
+ 
+ The text/glyph_extents functions can be used to determine the bounding
+ box (and advance) for text as if drawn by show_text/glyphs.
+ 
+ The text/glyph_path objects functions place text shapes on the current
+ path, where they can be subsequently manipulated. For example,
+ following these functions with cairo_stroke allows outline text to be
+ drawn. Calling cairo_clip allows clipping to a text-shaped region.
