textprintf_ex(3)                Allegro manual                textprintf_ex(3)



NAME
       textprintf_ex - Formatted output of a string. Allegro game programming
       library.

SYNOPSIS
       #include <allegro.h>


       void textprintf_ex(BITMAP *bmp, const FONT *f, int x, int y, int color,
       int bg, const char *fmt, ...);

DESCRIPTION
       Formatted text output, using a printf() style format string. Due to an
       internal limitation, this function can't be used for extremely long
       texts.  If you happen to reach this limit, you can work around it by
       using uszprintf() and textout_ex(), which don't have any. Example:

          int player_score;
          ...
          textprintf_ex(screen, font, 10, 10, makecol(255, 100, 200),
                        -1, "Score: %d", player_score);
