[HarfBuzz] hb-view output other than png possible?

[Rolf Langenhuijzen]

My bad, my local version was 0.6 :/ (installing it on max osx kinda sucks and I had to use an older tarball if I remember correctly).

Running 0.9 now on a server and this includes the current options and output I think (just testing right now).

Regards,
Rolf
