gl_write(3) Svgalib User Manual gl_write(3) NAME gl_write, gl_writen - write a text string SYNOPSIS #include <vgagl.h> void gl_write(int x, int y, char *s); void gl_writen(int x, int y, int n ,char *s); DESCRIPTION gl_write writes the zero terminated string s to position (x, y) using the currently selected font. gl_writen works similarly, but writes exactly n characters, thus allow- ing to use the character 0. The kind of text draw operation is set with gl_setwritemode(3). BEWARE! Prior to the of use of gl_write(3) and gl_writen(3) you must set a font. A good default initialization sequence is: gl_setfont(8, 8, gl_font8x8); gl_setwritemode(FONT_COMPRESSED + WRITEMODE_OVERWRITE); gl_setfontcolors(0, vga_white()); SEE ALSO svgalib(7), vgagl(7), svgalib.conf(5), threedkit(7), testgl(1), gl_printf(3), gl_colorfont(3), gl_expandfont(3), gl_font8x8(3), gl_set- font(3), gl_setfontcolors(3), gl_setwritemode(3).
