NAME
       al_get_font_line_height - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS
	      #include <allegro5/allegro_font.h>

	      int al_get_font_line_height(const ALLEGRO_FONT *f)

DESCRIPTION
       Returns	the usual height of a line of text in the specified font.  For
       bitmap fonts this is simply the height of all glyph bitmaps.  For true‐
       type fonts it is whatever the font file specifies.  In particular, some
       special glyphs may be higher than the height returned here.

       If the X is the position you specify  to	 draw  text,  the  meaning  of
       ascent and descent and the line height is like in the figure below.

	      X------------------------
		  /\	     |	      |
		 /  \	     |	      |
		/____\	     ascent   |
	       /      \	     |	      |
	      /	       \     |	      height
	      ----------------	      |
			     |	      |
			     descent  |
			     |	      |
