Yes, I was just wondering - because someone had posted a scene where they had
sort of written their own parser and used that to create a scene with properly
color-formatted text of an SDL scene.

Still can't find the post or the render.


It would be nice to have a copy-paste utility to do such a thing, because yes -
it's complicated and requires a lot of code to do text properly in SDL.

Maybe an OpenOffice macro would be the way to go...
Or a spreadsheet...
