gl_setfont(3)                 Svgalib User Manual                gl_setfont(3)


NAME

       gl_setfont - set the text font to be used


SYNOPSIS

       #include <vgagl.h>

       void gl_setfont(int fw, int fh, void *fp);


DESCRIPTION

       Use the font stored as character bitmaps at fp, with characters of size
       (fw, fh), as the basic font for write operations. Note that the font
       included in the library must be expanded first, because it is stored
       bit-per-pixel; this is not required if the FONT_COMPRESSED
       gl_setwritemode(3) flag is set.

       It is very likely that both are at least to some extent are due to Harm
