Nicer Text

This scenario adds options to use different fonts than the default one used by Greenfoot. While the default font may look decent offline, it's a different one online that looks aweful. You have always been able to use different fonts, however there is one major downside to using other fonts: When using the default font you can create an image with some text on it and it will automatically have the fitting size. However to use a custom font you have to print on existing image which requires you to know the dimensions that that text will have. To work around that problem I have started to - its great fun - measure each character from a font and create some classes that then use that measured size. So far I have got this font and a monospace font which was simple.

Includes detailed documentation!
