In this post i have add information how to add freetype library support to GRRLIB 4.0 library

Add the following source code section in the upper part of the GRRLIB 4.0 C file.

For example how to use this extension, please download the RedSquare source code.
Good Luck with it ❗ If you have any questions, please post a comment.
