Example:
1. Type "make"
2. Type "Test <font1.png> <font2.png>"
3. Type "oldTest <font1.png> <font2.png>" to see BFont old style
example.
Usage:
1. Load font information with LoadFont() function. See the 'Test'
example for details.
2. Now you can use the font in you SDL program.
Please, take a look at BFont.h to get info about the funtions.
Documentation:
1. Full documentation at:
http://www.cs.unibo.it/~dbilli/bfont/manual/BFontManual.html
FileFormat:
The font image file is the same used by SFont and DFont.
This mini-help is copied by "SFont README":
The font file can be any type image file supported by SDL_image
library.
The characters start with ASCII symbol #33. They are seperated by
pink(255,0,255) lines at the top of the image. The space between
these lines is the width of the caracter. Just take a look at the
font, and you'll be able to understand what I tried to explain here.
The easiest way to create a new font is to use the GIMP's Logo
function. Use the following string as text (ASCII 33-127 with
escape sequences and spaces between the letters):
! " # $ % & ' ( ) * + , - . / 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 : ; < = > ? () A B C D E F
