I'm new, but this is giving me problems. I'm on Ubuntu 9.04. I have tried copy
pasting other source codes with the same result. Should I just make my own Font
class from spites?
import pygame
===============================
def test():
screen = pygame.display.set_mode((640, 480))
background = pygame.Surface(screen.get_size())
background = background.convert()
background.fill((0, 0, 0))
font = pygame.font.get_default_font()
theFont = pygame.font.SysFont(font, 40)
msg = theFont.render("Hello World!",1,(255, 0, 255))
screen.blit(background, (0, 0))
screen.blit(msg, (20, 100))
pygame.display.flip()
done = False
while not done:
for event in pygame.event.get():
if event.type == pygame.QUIT:
done = True
================================
test()
================================
