title: C: Ways to access system font through code, use it in BMP
body: <p>Is there a universal way to access a (debian) system's basic font symbols, and use them as uncompressed, 24bpp bmps/bmp macros?
  I would need to do it using only standard C libraries and/or GCC preprocessor statements, and I'm not really sure what to search for on here.
  Thank you!</p>
