Documentation

FreeType based surface font. This class uses the benefit of truetype fonts (antialiasing, *many* free fonts) as well as the speed gain of surface fonts. When creating an object of Font the surfaces for the characters are all rendered in best quality. When the font-object is asked to create a surface from a string it just blits these character surfaces, which is quite fast.
