Draws text on screen. If no Font is set, one will be created and set (once) if needed.
As of LOVE 0.7.1, when using translation and scaling functions while drawing text, this function assumes the scale occurs first. If you don't script with this in mind, the text won't be in the right position, or possibly even on screen.
love.graphics.print and love.graphics.printf both support UTF-8 encoding. You'll also need a proper Font for special characters.
In versions prior to 11.0, color and byte component values were within the range of 0 to 255 instead of 0 to 1.
Text may appear blurry if it's rendered at non-integer pixel locations. |

Examples
A lame example
function love.draw()
love.graphics.setColor(0, 1, 0, 1)
love.graphics.print("This is a pretty lame example.", 10, 200)
love.graphics.setColor(1, 0, 0, 1)
love.graphics.print("This lame example is twice as big.", 10, 250, 0, 2, 2)
love.graphics.setColor(0, 0, 1, 1)
love.graphics.print("This example is lamely vertical.", 300, 30, math.pi/2)
end
Notes
In version 0.8.0 and older, love.graphics.print stops at the first '\0' (null) character. This can bite you if you are appending keystrokes to form your string, as some of those are multi-byte unicode characters which will likely contain null bytes.
