fmfprstr(3W)

fmfprstr - render a character string in a specified font

As shipped in IRIX 6.5.30. Unchanged since IRIX 6.5.

NAME
     fmfprstr - render a character string in a specified font

SYNOPSIS
     #include <fmclient.h>

     int fmfprstr(fh, str, len, x, y)
     fmfonthandle fh;
     unsigned char *str;
     short len;
     int x, y;

DESCRIPTION
     fmfprstr sets the current font to a specified font, and then renders a
     specified character string by using that font.  fmfprstr does not perform
     the subpixel positioning of characters.  It returns the length of the
     rendered character string in pixels.  This function can usually render a
     given character string faster than the function fmprstr. The return value
     of -1 indicates an error.
