FontMaker - Texture Atlas Creation Tool

This is the simplest possible alpha-only texture atlas implementation. Very fast and lightweight, not a lot of features.

Converts Truetype fonts to bitmap fonts with glyph information for each character, for use by the heronarts.glx.shader.Text3d shader program

To use, just set the input and output filenames in main and run FontMaker from the IDE.
