love.graphics.print

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.
