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.
