   Back to CatTrap dev! I'll probably have things to fix (certainly to add subgrid support to Grid Layout since I've shunted that responsibility off onto the layout formula!), but I've got parsing of CSS grid & length properties completed.

   Now that I can call my Harfbuzz language bindings I'll hook it up to resolve some of the units.

   Tomorrow I can certainly have a demo running...

   This weekend I'll get text rendering! Add pagination & I'll be ready for a live demo nex weekend...

     Font-querying is successfully integrated.

     My game plan now: Dinner break, research how to handle the "vb" & "vi" units, & tomorrow: Integrate the last pieces & get a demo program running rendering boxes. I'm sure I can get that far!

     Then hopefully over the weekend integrate "Balkon" & get text laid out & rendered! If I can achieve that I can give a live demo at LibrePlanet... This is tight...

     Yay! I've got a testscript computing the layout from an XML styletree!

     I think tomorrow I'll get this rendering so I can see if I've implemented things correctly, tackle integrating text layout, & maybe tackle lowering tables. Made a start on that last task, but I've got other stuff I need done for my LibrePlanet demo next weekend! This is tight...
