It depends on which "action". Another responder has mentioned
the Freetype demos, which contain both source examples and tools
that demo glyph rendering.

If you want examples of using the library to render text, most
major recent GNU/Linux text-display library uses Freetype2, so
you can look at their source, for example Cairo, Fltk, QT4, and
obviously its most common and basic wrappers, FontConfig and Xft.

If you want to look at how fonts render, I typically use 'xterm
-fa' followed by a FontConfig spec.
