FONTS
Stored in fonts.ddf file or in the DDFFONT data lump.
Fonts.ddf allows you to define fonts (the set of character images for drawing text).Names should be descriptive of what the font is and/or when it is used.
COMMANDS
The commands used for font entries are as follows:
| COMMAND | TYPE | DESCRIPTION |
|---|---|---|
| TYPE | [string] | PATCH is the only type so far. |
| PATCHES | [string] | What patch will be used for a character or range of characters. Put a character in "" quotes or use : for a range of characters e.g. FONTP33("!") or FONTP65("A":"Z") |
| MISSING_PATCH | [string] | Optional. The patch to be used when we're missing a character. |
EXAMPLES
The following is an example of a complete font entry:
|
[FOO]
Where the FONTPxx names above are the patch names. For ranges it
is the first patch, and should end with digits in order for EDGE
to work out the other patches properly (FONTP66 will be "B", etc).
The missing patch is optional. Having a patch for a space (" ")
is also optional.
