FTGL is a free open source library to enable developers to use
arbitrary fonts in their OpenGL applications. Unlike other
OpenGL font libraries FTGL uses standard font file formats so
doesn't need a preprocessing step to convert the high quality
font data into a lesser quality, proprietary format. FTGL uses
the Freetype (www.freetype.org) font library to open and
'decode' the fonts. It then takes that output and stores it in
a format most efficient for OpenGL rendering.
