I have an immature, but precise and picky implementation that renders text in a ttf font to an OpenGL texture (using SDL-ttf) here: http://svn.luqui.org/svn/misc/luke/work/code/haskell/frp/Fregl/Draw.hs (It may have some dependencies in the same directory). Text support is way at the bottom.
Along the same lines, I have an imcomplete, but direct binding to freetype and an incomplete binding to GLX which can be used to draw text to opengl textures: http://n-heptane.com/nhlab/repos/haskell-freetype/ http://n-heptane.com/nhlab/repos/haskell-glx/ This file contains an example of drawing text using GLX+FreeType: http://n-heptane.com/nhlab/repos/haskell-freetype/FreeTypeTest.hs This code has not been touched in a few years, so it probably needs some updates to work with ghc 6.8. Also, I believe the X11 package now has builtin support for ClientMessage, so that module can go away. j.
