     The _pg_getchardef function retrieves the current 8-by-8 pixel
     bitmap for the character with the ASCII number <charnum>. The
     bitmap is stored in the <chardef> array.
 
     This function retrieves the bitmap for the specified character
     of the default font, regardless of which font is currently
     registered. The function should be used only with the 8-by-8-bit
     raster fonts of the presentation-graphics library, not with
     Windows fonts.
     See: ◄Presentation-Graphics Functions►
 
     Return Value
 
     The _pg_getchardef function returns 0 if there were no errors. A
     nonzero value indicates an error.
