I hope so, but here is the case: I can compile & run the sample
code in pango-Cairo-Rendering.html, (with a cairo_surface
created from win32 HDC), but the performance is really low, I
can see obvious delay between the program showing and the
text showing. (I linked the code with pangocairo-1.0.lib and
pango-1.0.lib and cairo.lib here.)

So I started trying pangowin32-1.0.lib to see if it is faster, but
I encounter the problem I've reported in:

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-i18n-list/2006-April/msg00023.html

So I'm wondering if there are some guidance or simpler code
I can follow and running correctly.

BTW: IMHO, gtk-win32 is really slow, most people using pango
in win32 may wish to use a native GUI toolkit. So I guess
viewer-win32.c might need some serious modification.
