# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. # Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and # the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. # You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| ftgl: ftgl (font rendering library for OpenGL applications) ftgl: ftgl: FTGL is a free, open source library to enable developers to use ftgl: arbitrary fonts in their OpenGL (www.opengl.org) applications. ftgl: Unlike other OpenGL font libraries FTGL uses standard font file ftgl: formats so doesn't need a preprocessing step to convert the high ftgl: quality font data into a lesser quality, proprietary format. ftgl: FTGL uses the Freetype (www.freetype.org) font library to open and ftgl: 'decode' the fonts. It then takes that output and stores it in a ftgl: format most efficient for OpenGL rendering. ftgl: Homepage: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ftgl/
