    PLATFORMS:

        All. With OS specific #ifdefs...

    HISTORY:

        11/17/03    awi     Spun off from SCREENTestTexture which also used Quartz and Textures to draw text but did not match the 'DrawText' specifications.
        10/12/04    awi     In useString: changed "SCREEN" to "Screen", and moved commas to inside [].
        2/25/05     awi     Added call to PsychUpdateAlphaBlendingFactorLazily().  Drawing now obeys settings by Screen('BlendFunction').
        5/08/05     mk      Bugfix for "Descenders of letters get cut/eaten away" bug introduced in PTB 1.0.5
        10/12/05    mk      Fix crash in DrawText caused by removing glFinish() while CLIENT_STORAGE is enabled!
                            -> Disabling CLIENT_STORAGE and removing glFinish() is the proper solution...
        11/01/05    mk      Finally the real bugfix for "Descenders of letters get cut/eaten away" bug introduced in PTB 1.0.5!
        11/01/05    mk      Removal of dead code + beautification.
        11/21/05    mk      Code for updating the "Drawing Cursor" and returning NewX, NewY values added.
        01/01/06    mk      Code branch for M$-Windoze implementation of DrawText added.
        11/11/07    mk      New GDI based Windoze text renderer implemented.
        12/27/09    mk      Massive refactoring of code for all platforms and support for plugin-based textrenderers.
                            -> Cleans up the mess of duplicated code and special cases. We share as much code as possible accross platforms.
                            -> Allows for unicode support on all platforms.
                            -> Allows for plugin renderer on Linux and OS/X for unicode, anti-aliasing etc.
                            -> Allows for better handling of unicode and multibyte character encodings.

        11/02/13    mk      Rewrite OSX renderer: Switch from deprecated ATSUI to "new" CoreText as supported on OSX 10.5 and later.

    DESCRIPTION:

        Unified file with text renderers for all platforms (OS/X, Windows, Linux).

    REFERENCES:

        http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html - A good FAQ about Unicode, UTF-8 with a special emphasis on Linux and Posix systems.

// Synopsis string for DrawText:
static char synopsisString[] =
    "Draw text. \"text\" may include Unicode characters (e.g. Chinese).\n"
    "A standard Matlab/Octave char()acter text string is interpreted according to Screen's "
    "current character encoding setting. By default this is the \"system default locale\", as "
    "selected in the language settings of your user account. You can change the encoding "
    "anytime via a call to Screen('Preference', 'TextEncodingLocale', newencoding); "
    "E.g., for UTF-8 multibyte character encoding you'd call Screen('Preference','TextEncodingLocale','UTF-8');\n"
    "If you have a non-ASCII text string and want to make sure that Matlab or Octave doesn't "
    "meddle with your string, convert it into a uint8() datatype before passing to this function.\n"
    "If you want to pass a string which contains unicode characters directly, convert the "
    "text to a double matrix, e.g., mytext = double(myunicodetext); then pass the double "
    "matrix to this function. Screen will interpret all double numbers directly as unicode "
    "code points.\n"
    "Unicode text drawing is supported on all operating systems if you select the default "
    "high quality text renderer. Of course you also have to select a text font which contains "
    "the unicode character sets you want to draw - not all fonts contain all unicode characters.\n"
    "The following optional parameters allow to control location and color of the drawn text:\n"
    "\"x\" \"y\" defines the text pen start location. Default is the location of the pen from "
    "previous draw text commands, or (0,0) at startup. \"color\" is the CLUT index (scalar or [r "
    "g b] triplet or [r g b a] quadruple) for drawing the text; startup default produces black.\n"
    "\"backgroundColor\" is the color of the background area behind the text. By default, "
    "text is drawn transparent in front of whatever image content is stored in the window. "
    "You need to set an explicit backgroundColor and possibly enable user defined alpha-blending "
    "with Screen('Preference', 'TextAlphaBlending', 1); and Screen('Blendfunction', ...) to make "
    "use of text background drawing. Appearance of the background + text may be different accross "
    "different operating systems and text renderers, or it may not be supported at all, so this is "
    "not a feature to rely on.\n"
    "\"yPositionIsBaseline\" If specified, will override the global preference setting for text "
    "positioning: It defaults to off. If it is set to 1, then the \"y\" pen start location defines "
    "the base line of drawn text, otherwise it defines the top of the drawn text. Old PTB's had a "
    "behaviour equivalent to setting 1, unfortunately this behaviour wasn't replicated in early "
    "versions of Psychtoolbox-3, so now we stick to the new behaviour by default.\n"
    "\"swapTextDirection\" If specified and set to 1, then the direction of the text is swapped "
    "from the default left-to-right to the swapped right-to-left direction, e.g., to handle scripts "
    "with right-to-left writing order like hebrew.\n"
    "\"newX, newY\" optionally return the final pen location.\n"
    "\"textHeight\" optionally return height of current text string. May return zero if this is "
    "not supported by the current text renderer.\n"
    "Btw.: Screen('Preference', ...); provides a couple of interesting text preference "
    "settings that affect text drawing, e.g., setting alpha blending and anti-aliasing modes.\n"
    "Selectable text renderers: The Screen('Preference', 'TextRenderer', Type); command allows "
    "to select among different text rendering engines with different properties:\n"
    "Type 0 is the legacy OS specific text renderer: On Linux this is implemented as a fast, "
    "but low quality OpenGL display list renderer without any support for unicode or text "
    "anti-aliasing. On MS-Windows, this is currently a GDI based renderer. On OSX this currently "
    "selects Apples CoreText text renderer, which is slow but "
    "does support anti-aliasing, unicode and other features. Normally you really don't want to use "
    "the type 0 legacy renderer. It is provided for backwards compatibility to old experiment scripts "
    "and may need to get removed completely in future versions of Psychtoolbox due to circumstances "
    "out of our control.\n"
    "Type 1 is the high quality renderer: It supports unicode, anti-aliasing, and many "
    "other interesting features. This is a renderer loaded from an external plugin, and based on FTGL "
    "for fast high quality text drawing with OpenGL.\n"
    "This function doesn't provide support for text layout. Use the higher level DrawFormattedText() function "
    "if you need basic support for text layout, e.g, centered text output, line wrapping etc.\n";
