+This library is a wrapper around the excellent FreeType 2.0 library,
+available at:
+        http://www.freetype.org/
+
+This library allows you to use TrueType fonts to render text in SDL
+applications.
+
+To make the library, first install the FreeType library, then type
+'./configure' then 'make' to build the SDL truetype library and the
+showfont and glfont example applications.
+
+Be careful when including fonts with your application, as many of them
+are copyrighted.  The Microsoft fonts, for example, are not freely 
+redistributable and even the free "web" fonts they provide are only 
+redistributable in their special executable installer form (May 1998).
+There are plenty of freeware and shareware fonts available on the Internet
+though, and may suit your purposes.
+
+This library is under the zlib license, see the file "COPYING.txt" for details.
+
+Portions of this software are copyright © 2013 The FreeType Project (www.freetype.org).  All rights reserved.

+Enjoy!
