Ok, here's the problem:
When i render text with the text primitive, sometimes(usualy when i
first add the ttf file i use to my include dir) i get odd characters,
such as boxes(i.e. what's put in place of a non-existant character) and
other characters instead of the text string i put... i change the font
to one that i've used before, and it works just fine, and eventualy the
new font seems to work, but i dont' know why, and i can't usualy wait
for eventualy... Please reply via e-mail if possible... thanks.
