-= Features =-

Samstag has posted an excellent guide at http://forums.qj.net/showthread.php?t=47934

Samstag is also the author of 'flib' which is another library for freetype2 development
... and the reason I created Fontloader :)

-= Samples =-

In the 'Samples' directory within this archive there is example code on how to integrate
Fontloader.

/Samples/Graphicslib/ -- Psilocybeing's graphic library sample
/Samples/GU/ -- Uses the PSPSDK GU functions

The sample and the fontloader.h are well commented so implementation should be simple.

-= ToDo =-

-- Rotation

-= Credits =-

Samstag -- For flib and inspiring me to create this.
Shine -- The code in Fontloader is based heavily on the freetype2 implementation in LuaPlayer, 99% of the credit for Fontloader should go to him!
