Dear Maintainer,

PDF documents can be hard to read using fbgs because text is not being antialiased. Some documents are so unpleasant to
read that the program is essentially unusable.

Fortunately, it is a simple matter to enable antialiasing in ghostscript, if the output device is not monochrome.

I have created a patch which makes color and antialiasing work by default in fbgs. Of course, I have added flags to
disable those defaults if someone should so wish. (-M for monochrome, -A for no antialiasing).

Note that since antialiasing requires "color" output, this patch includes the fixes I sent on BUG #780643.

A second patch is included for the man page.

Ben

Hello Ben,

Thanks you for yours patches and your cares to improve fbi / fbgs. If
you have other suggestions, please feel free to contact me directly.

I propose another patch with an option --(no)antialias which is more in
the style of the author. For the shortcut -A, I do not know if it also
pleases. If it suits you, I submit with proper documentation.

As regards the "-c" option, it should be treated separately.

Regards,

Dear Maintainer,

Since the upstream already has color fixed, here is the antialiasing patch without that part.

Ben
