hi again,
one other thing with fonts...
perhaps we should have a fallback, for when freesansbold.ttf doesn't exist?
Seems to be a common error... that we have fixed most issues with (py2exe
missing not copying freesansbold.ttf in, freesansbold.ttf not being included
by packagers, freesansbold.ttf having the wrong permissions, etc). However,
it still would be good to try and make it not fail so easily.
Something like adding pygame.font.SysFont("sans", size) if the Font(None,
size) raises an exception for a missing font... and if that fails, try and
find any font.
Maybe I should also try and log a warning that the incorrect font was used.
What do you reckon?
