""" pygame.examples.freetype_misc


Miscellaneous (or misc) means:
  "consisting of a mixture of various things that are not
   usually connected with each other"
   Adjective


All those words you read on computers, magazines, books, and such over the years?
Probably a lot of them were constructed with...

The FreeType Project:  a free, high-quality and portable Font engine.
https://freetype.org

Next time you're reading something. Think of them.


Herein lies a *BOLD* demo consisting of a mixture of various things.

        Not only is it a *BOLD* demo, it's an
        italics demo,
        a rotated demo,
        it's a blend,
        and is sized to go nicely with a cup of tea*.

        * also goes well with coffee.

Enjoy!
