Comment (by dsizzle):
Ok, I set Pe to strip trailing blanks so that should be better for future
stuff, and I fixed the extraneous parens in ServerFont.cpp line 520.
Resaving the file also got rid of the trailing blanks.
I also initialized the vars to avoid the warning. I use jam with -q which
I *thought* uses -Wall and -Werror...do you also use -Wextra?
A possible reason to have the unicode_block_ranges public could be for a
tool such as CharacterMap, which currently defines its own data structure
with similar information: unicode ranges, a mapping to a block constant
(if available, otherwise kNoBlock), and whether the block is private or
not. I can see where it might be good to have that as part of the API,
but I can also argue that it is specialized to a tool like CharacterMap,
so not generally useful compiled into Haiku itself (like Pulkomandy's
comment about mostly wanting to look up a few chars here and there but
almost never a whole block).
