FAFONTREMOVE(3W)

Series 300 and 500 Only

NAME

fafontremove − remove a font from the user’s font cache

SYNOPSIS

int fafontremove(gfd,fontid);
int gfd,fontid;

DESCRIPTION

gfd is an integer file descriptor for an gopened device interface. 

fontid
a unique system id assigned to a font when the font is loaded with fafontload. 

DISCUSSION

This routine deletes the font from the user’s font cache.  If this font was the currently active font, an error will occur if further fast alpha operations are attempted without first activating another font. 

HARDWARE DEPENDENCIES

Series 500:
Fast alpha routines do not support HP-15 (2-byte) fonts on Series 500.

SEE ALSO

fafontload(3W), faterminate(3W). 

DIAGNOSTICS

A value -1 is returned if gfd or fontid is invalid, or a call to fainit was never executed on this gfd.  See errno(2) for further information.
