+/**
+ * This class represents the contents of a font encoding file,
+ * e.g. "8r.enc"
+ *
+ * Explanation of font encodings: TeX was designed to only use
+ * MetaFont fonts. A DVI file referres to a MetaFont font by giving an
+ * at-most-8-character name, such as 'cmr10'. The DVI previewer would
+ * then locate the associated PK font file (e.g. cmr10.600pk), load
+ * it, and retrieve the character shaped.
+ *
+ * Today TeX is also used to access Type1 and TrueType fonts, which it
+ * was never designed to do. As in the case of MetaFont font, the DVI
+ * file specifies the name of a font, e.g. 'rpbkd', and the DVI
+ * previewer finds the associated font file 'ubkd8a.pfb' by means of a
+ * map file (see fontMap.h). The font map file also specifies an
+ * encoding (e.g. '8r', to be found in a file '8r.enc'). Font
+ * encodings are necessary because TeX can only use the first 256
+ * characters of a font, while modern PostScript fonts often contain
+ * more.
+ *
+ * In a PostScript font, glyphs can often be accessed in two ways:
+ *
+ * (a) by an integer, the 'glyph index', which need not be
+ * positive. Glyph indices can be found in every font.
+ *
+ * (b) by the name of the glyph, such as 'A', 'plusminus' or
+ * 'ogonek'. Note: Not all fonts contain glyph names, and if a font
+ * contains glyph names, they are not always reliable.
+ *
+ * An encoding file is essentially a list of 256 names of glyphs that
+ * TeX wishes to use from a certain font. If the font contains more
+ * than 256 glyphs, TeX is still limited to use at most 256 glyphs. If
+ * more glyphs are required, TeX can probably use the same font under
+ * a different name and with a different encoding ---the map file
+ * (fontMap.h) can probably see to that.
+ *
+ * Summing up: this class contains 256 glyph names read from an
+ * encoding file during the construction of this class.
+ *
+ * @author Stefan Kebekus   <kebekus@kde.org>
