- FastText Copyright 1988 by Darren M. Greenwald
-
- This is the first revision of my new FastText() code which
- can be linked in, and included within your programs. These
- new routines utilize the blitter, and speed up rendering of
- fonts of any height, and of 4-16 pixels in width. As far
- as I know, this is a first. My own, and other fast text
- rendering routines only speed up rendering of 8 bit wide
- fonts.
-
- This new Fast Text code is also somewhat easier to use then
- the previous two versions I released in 1978.
-
- Oh, I went ahead, and added a font I created some time ago
- called WIDE.FONT. Despite the name, WIDE.FONT is a
- skinnier 6 bit wide, 8 bit high Topaz style font. It is a
- non-proportional font suitable for use with SetFont - using
- it effectively gives you more columns to work with, hence
- the name WIDE.FONT!
