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.
