		<description><![CDATA[<div class="mockup v2"><p>Hello,<br />I&#39;m coding some wrapper code to use fonts in my framework, and When I was coding the allegro5 backend for it, I realized that there isn&#39;t any al_load_font_f, or something like that.<br />I know I can use al_load_ttf_font_f, but... Is there a way to load bitmap fonts as well using ALLEGRO_FILE ? If I could use al_load_font_f, it would be great...</p><p>Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.

		<description><![CDATA[<div class="mockup v2"><p>Looks like it&#39;s an oversight. You can use <span class="source-code"><a href="http://www.allegro.cc/manual/al_grab_font_from_bitmap"><span class="a">al_grab_font_from_bitmap</span></a></span> as an approximate replacement (it&#39;s approximate because it doesn&#39;t auto-determine the ranges of characters in the font file like <span class="source-code"><a href="http://www.allegro.cc/manual/al_load_bitmap_font"><span class="a">al_load_bitmap_font</span></a></span> does).

		<description><![CDATA[<div class="mockup v2"><p>al_load_bitmap_font doesn&#39;t determine ranges - you can&#39;t even load the a4_font.png example with it. So always better to use al_grab_font_from_bitmap anyway. Ideally al_load_bitmap_font also would have the ranges parameters though (and it would have an _f) version.
