.TH vga_gettextfont 3 "27 July 1997" "Svgalib (>= 1.2.11)" "Svgalib User Manual"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
vga_gettextfont, vga_puttextfont \- get/set the font used in text mode
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
.B "#include <vga.h>"
|
|
|
|
.BI "void vga_gettextfont(void *font);"
|
|
.br
|
|
.BI "void vga_puttextfont(void *font);"
|
|
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
The functions gives access to the buffer where svgalib saves the font used by the kernel.
|
|
This is used by the
|
|
.BR restorefont "(1), "
|
|
.BR savetextmode "(1), and "
|
|
.BR textmode "(1)"
|
|
utilities to restore a possibly screwed console font.
|
|
|
|
The font buffer occupies 8192 bytes. However, versions 1.2.13 and later use
|
|
a larger buffer internally and the size of the buffers passed to
|
|
.BR vga_gettextfont "(3) and " vga_puttextfont (3)
|
|
can be set with
|
|
.BR vga_ext_set (3).
|
|
|
|
The functions give access to the internal buffers of svgalib,
|
|
.B not
|
|
the font tables of the VGA card. This means that both functions must be called
|
|
in graphics mode and a newly set font takes effect only at the next
|
|
.BR vga_setmode(TEXT)
|
|
call.
