BenHur has released a new version of intraFont, the font library favored by majority of homebrew devs. This version has an added option that lets you use characters from different font files in a single string. Now you can mix and match to your heart's delight. There are several other updates as well. Here are the release notes and the changelog:

With this update it's possible to print a string with characters that are stored in different font files. I.e. you can mix latin, japanese, chinese, korean and symbol characters as you like.

This is done by setting an alternative font with intraFontSetAltFont(). The alternative font is used in case the main font does not contain a certain glyph. (If you want to mix more than two fonts: you can set another alternative font for the alternative font and so on...)

Changelog:

• added option to set alternative font, which is used for characters that are not present in the current font (e.g. if you want to print chars from two or more fonts in the same string)

• added support for unpacking LZR streams in libccc:
  
  • libccc 0.31 is able to unpack and load the firmwares own codepage conversion tables
  • Thus its tables are no longer needed (saves around 140kB of size/memory, DLIBCCC_NO_CPxxx is now obsolete)
  • The routines for decoding and (limited) encoding of LZR streams are also seperately released: libLZR 0.11 (see below)

• bug fixed where intraFontMeasureTextUCS2() could return a wrong value (bug introduced in version 0.30)
