Thanks ... I added that with a few changes ... untested though.
We need to have this functionality for the win32 and cairo backends though.

Here is the patch for GUI and Back.
It works fine on art backend so far.

Two methods have no implementation in NSFont:
- (unsigned) numberOfGlyphs
- (NSCharacterSet*) coveredCharacterSet

Here is code to get these information from font in art backend,
which use FreeType:

 
  {
    // FT_Face *pface;
    NSLog(@"Face 0x%x", pface);
    NSLog(@"Number of glyphs %d", (*pface)->num_glyphs);

    FT_ULong charcode; /* Char index */
    FT_UInt gindex; /* Glyph index */
    charcode = FT_Get_First_Char(*pface, &gindex);
    while (gindex != 0)
    {
      charcode = FT_Get_Next_Char(*pface, charcode, &gindex);
      NSLog(@"Char %c(%ld), Glyph %d", charcode, charcode, gindex);
    }
  }

I don't know where to use the code and have the information
back to NSFont.
I test it in back/art/Source/ftfont.m:
static FT_Error ft_get_face(FTC_FaceID fid, FT_Library lib, FT_Pointer data, FT_Face *pface)
As long as FT_Face is available,
these information can be obtained anywhere.

Maybe someone knows better where to put it.
And I don't know how fast to go through all characters,
especially for CJK users.
Maybe a cache would be nice.
