Assigning this to bill, who worked on fonts for 0.7.0.

I'd bet you twenty bucks that this is yet another power-of-2 issue, something that I'm really getting sick of. (Dear robin-gvx: your graphics card sucks and I hate it.)

I know we don't pad things by default anymore, but we should probably consider doing that for fonts. Thoughts, bartbes?

Original comment by Bart van Strien (Bitbucket: bartbes, GitHub: bartbes).

Ehm, why would you ever not want to pad fonts?

Original comment by Robin Wellner (Bitbucket: gvx, GitHub: gvx).

I hate my graphics card (and drivers) too, but yeah, why not do them like they were done in 0.6?

Original comment by Bill Meltsner (Bitbucket: bmelts, GitHub: bmelts).

Okay, this is nominally fixed in <<changeset 079397ac976b>> but I don't have a computer to test it on. It'd be awesome if someone without non-power-of-2 texture support could test out the latest revision and see if fonts show up for them.

It seems strange, but with r355 and even simple Hello World from wiki, so:

#!lua

function love.draw()
    love.graphics.print('Hello World!', 400, 300)
end

I'm getting

I don't know if this is exactly after only r355 or later few speed-up revisions (wasn't checking right after), though it seems related so I decided to post it here :)

I would wager that's an issue with me being dumb and using the wrong delete in pad() (and perhaps with Mac OS X being somewhat... generous with what it allows, code-wise). Try the latest revision?

Well, it doesn't segfault anymore. However, like I mentioned in IRC, I'm not sure if it actually //works//...

from love.

Original comment by Robin Wellner (Bitbucket: gvx, GitHub: gvx).

I get a segfault too, when giving love-hg a wrongly-packaged directory.

from love.

Original comment by Andrzej Giniewicz (Bitbucket: giniu, GitHub: giniu).

current tip works for me, no segfault, though I cannot tell about original issue as it always worked for me

from love.

Original comment by Bart van Strien (Bitbucket: bartbes, GitHub: bartbes).

Oh I fixed it (confirmed by robin in IRC), of course our friend here assumed too much...
