-# - Locate FreeType library
-# This module defines
-#  FREETYPE_LIBRARIES, the library to link against
-#  FREETYPE_FOUND, if false, do not try to link to FREETYPE
-#  FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIRS, where to find headers.
-#  FREETYPE_VERSION_STRING, the version of freetype found (since CMake 2.8.8)
-#  This is the concatenation of the paths:
-#  FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIR_ft2build
-#  FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIR_freetype2
-#
-# $FREETYPE_DIR is an environment variable that would
-# correspond to the ./configure --prefix=$FREETYPE_DIR
-# used in building FREETYPE.

-# Ugh, FreeType seems to use some #include trickery which
-# makes this harder than it should be. It looks like they
-# put ft2build.h in a common/easier-to-find location which
-# then contains a #include to a more specific header in a
-# more specific location (#include <freetype/config/ftheader.h>).
-# Then from there, they need to set a bunch of #define's
-# so you can do something like:
-# #include FT_FREETYPE_H
-# Unfortunately, using CMake's mechanisms like include_directories()
-# wants explicit full paths and this trickery doesn't work too well.
-# I'm going to attempt to cut out the middleman and hope
-# everything still works.
