Arguments

bm_object	Either a bm_bitmap(), bm_list(), or bm_font() object.
direction	Either "vertical" or "v", "horizontal" or "h", OR "both" or "b".
in_place	If TRUE flip the glyphs in place (without changing any white space padding).

Examples

  font_file <- system.file("fonts/spleen/spleen-8x16.hex.gz", package = "bittermelon")
  font <- read_hex(font_file)

  # Print upside down
  bml <- as_bm_list("RSTATS", font = font)
  bml <- bm_flip(bml, "both")
  bm <- bm_call(bml, cbind, direction = "RTL")
  print(bm, px = px_ascii)

  # Can also modify glyphs "in place"
  exclamation <- font[[str2ucp("!")]]
  exclamation_flipped <- bm_flip(exclamation, in_place = TRUE)
  print(exclamation_flipped, px = px_ascii)
