    As the name implies, it draws vector fonts, thus they are smooth and anti-aliased!
    Unlike any other "texter" you are free to pick any size you want!
    Moreover, if you look hard enough, you can find almost any font you want (in SVG format. Two of them are included with the script: Helvetica and ComicNeue)
    Installation instructions:
    1) Download: http://mniip.com/misc/svg.zip
    2) Unpack into your TPT folder.
    3) Optionally put svg.lua into the Script folder if used with cracker's script manager.
    Usage:
    1) Press Ctrl+T
    2) Choose font and font size.
    3) Enter text, \n creates a newline.

    edited the script so it doesnt require 85.1 anymore, though it went noticeably slower now...

    This is awsome, but is it anymore fonts? And how to make it run on Jacob1's mod?

    I was going to take the 16000'th thread for my mod but then I realized I wouldn't really be able to start it quickly at all. I only have one commit ...
    So I think i'll wait until like 16667 or something. tpt++ still has things I want to fix, so maybe I won't start any more. This time i'm not going to put those types of fixes in my mod like I did for tpt, i'm going to put them in the real game so everyone can have them.

    Also I still haven't tried this, but I guess it looks cool. We now have lua scripts to create fonts out of real fonts, and fonts out of handmade fonts.

    Added coloring and alphaing support, and now after you click OK you can use scrollwheel or [] to adjust size
