// (1) let's start with a glyph, this represents one character in a word
type
TGlyph = record
character : Char; // unsigned char, uchar is something else in delphi
glyphsSolid[8] : GlyphTexture; // fast, but not that
glyphsBlended[8] : GlyphTexture; // slower than solid, but it look's more pretty
//this class has a method, which should be a deconstructor (mog is on his way to understand the principles of oop :P)
deconstructor procedure ReleaseTextures();
end;
// (2) okay, we now need the stuff that's even beneath this glyph - we're right at the birth of text in here :P

height : Cardinal;

charHeight : Integer;
