FTGL-sharp

FreeType GL interface/wrapper for .Net/Mono. FTGL is used for rendering truetype fonts in OpenGL contexts.

Use the FontWrapper class as following:

// ... while initializing
var font = FontWrapper.LoadFile("..../myFont.ttf");
font.FontSize = 20; // * 1/72 inch font size (iirc)

// ... while drawing
GL.Translate(textX, textY, textZ); // (optional) set text render origin
font.Render("MyText");

// ... while exiting
font.Dispose();

To get the text's final width, call font.GetAdvance("MyText");

Same goes for a line's height: font.LineHeight;

The library isn't complete at all, but the main functionality is working already!
