Hello Chickeneers,
I know you’ve all been waiting to do some text rendering in OpenGL, and now you
can!
gl-type renders your typeface into a reasonably well packed texture (with
Freetype) and then lets you create a vertex buffer that represents a string. It
does basic text layout (i.e. it word wraps) but only supports horizontal
left-to-right scripts.
Check out the docs here:
