NAME
     fcft_init - initialize the library

SYNOPSIS
     #include <fcft/fcft.h>

     bool fcft_init(
	 enum  fcft_log_colorize  colorize,  bool do_syslog, enum fcft_log_class
	 log_level);

DESCRIPTION
     fcft_init() initializes the fcft library, and must be called before instan-
     tiating any fonts.

     Since it also initializes logging, you may also want to ensure it is called
     before any other  functions  affecting  the  library  state.  For	example,
     fcft_set_scaling_filter().

     colorize is one of:

	 enum fcft_log_colorize {
	     FCFT_LOG_COLORIZE_NEVER,
	     FCFT_LOG_COLORIZE_ALWAYS,
	     FCFT_LOG_COLORIZE_AUTO
	 };

     FCFT_LOG_COLORIZE_AUTO enables colors if stderr is a TTY.

     if  do_syslog  is	set, fcft will log to syslog, in addition to the regular
     logging on stderr.

     Note that fcft does not call openlog(), even if do_syslog is set.	Do  this
     from the calling application. Before, or after calling fcft_init() does not
     matter, as long as it is done before calling any other fcft API functions.

     Finally,  log_level  configures  which  types  of log messages that will be
     shown.

	 enum fcft_log_class {
	     FCFT_LOG_CLASS_NONE,
	     FCFT_LOG_CLASS_ERROR,
	     FCFT_LOG_CLASS_WARNING,
	     FCFT_LOG_CLASS_INFO,
	     FCFT_LOG_CLASS_DEBUG
	 };

     Note that this is not a bitmask; setting FCFT_LOG_CLASS_INFO, also  enables
     FCFT_LOG_CLASS_WARNING and FCFT_LOG_CLASS_ERROR.

RETURN VALUE
     True if initialization was successful, otherwise false.
