DESCRIPTION
font selects the raster font that charstr uses when it draws
a text string. fntnum is an index into the font table that
defrasterfont builds. This font remains in effect until
another font executes. Font 0 is the default.
If font specifies a font number that is not defined, the
system selects font 0.
