[gameprogrammer] Re: [SDL, OpenGL and SDL_ttf] Need help

From what I gather with SDL_TTF, it is only expected to work with
image buffers in SDL and not directly with OpenGL.  It's goal is to
rasterise strings with a TTF.  You certainly can use it with OpenGL
if you use it to render the strings to a bitmap to be used as a
texture in OpenGL.  It won't create polygons or meshes of the letters
and render them out (Unless that is something new.)
