https://github.com/libass/libass/blob/master/Changelog
libass (0.13.0)
* Add native font selection backends for OSX (CoreText) and Windows
(DirectWrite). You can now run libass without fontconfig on these
platforms. This fixes problems with fontconfig behaving badly on
these platforms (it could take minutes to scan all system fonts).
Even on Linux, this speeds up loading of embedded fonts (such as
provided by ass_add_font()).
The DirectWrite backend only works on Windows Vista and later. On
XP, fontconfig is still needed. libass can be compiled with both
DirectWrite and fontconfig, and then it will fallback to fontconfig
automatically if DirectWrite is not available at runtime.
* Add ass_get_available_font_providers() API function.
* Change the 4th parameter of ass_set_fonts(). This now selects the
font provider. This is somewhat backwards compatible with the old
behavior, but if you ever passed values other than 0 or 1, your
application might break with this libass release.
* The ass_fonts_update() function now does nothing. It's kept for
backward compatibility only.
* Much faster gaussian blur. This can bring a large speedup with big
blurred signs and such.
* Drop ENCA support
* Bug fixes
* Fix compilation of the freetype rasterizer (disabled by default)
* Fix rendering with some cases of consecutive line breaks (\N\N).
* Fix some memory allocation failure checks
* Avoid system locale dependent behavior by reinventing some standard
C functions
* Fix rendering errors with strikes (GH #193)
* MSVC compilation fixes
