Read and write yaff bitmap font files

Description

read_yaff() reads in yaff format bitmap font files as a bm_font() object while write_yaff() writes a bm_font() object as a yaff format bitmap font file.

Usage

read_yaff(con)

write_yaff(font, con = stdout())

Arguments

con	A connection object or a character string of a filename. See base::readLines() or base::writeLines() for more info. If it is a connection it will be explicitly closed.
font	A bm_font() object.

Value

read_yaff() returns a bm_font() object. write_yaff() returns invisibly a character vector of the contents of the yaff font file it wrote to con as a side effect.
