[GRASS-user] Freetype fonts in gis.m

[Michael Barton]

The layers are always rendered and composited in bottom to top order in
gis.m.

Between each layer rendering, it is necessary to run a d.font command or no
text will render. Currently this defaults to d.font romans. It could be set
to a variable which, in turn, could be set by d.font.text or
d.font.freetype.
