# Use the built-in font to draw a grapheme to real screen.
#
# We need to do this in machine code because Mu doesn't have global variables
# yet (for the start of the font).
#
# There are uncomfortable assumptions baked in here about english/latin
# script. We convert the grid of pixels into a fixed-width grid of graphemes,
# which may not work well with other language families.

== code

# The Mu computer's screen is 1024px wide and 768px tall.
# The Mu computer's font is 8px wide and 16px tall.
# Therefore 'x' here is in [0, 128), and 'y' is in [0, 48)
# Doesn't update the cursor; where the cursor should go after printing the
# current grapheme is a higher-level concern.

== data

# The cursor is where certain Mu functions (usually of the form
# 'draw*cursor*') print to by default.
#
# We don't bother displaying the cursor when drawing. It only becomes visible
# on draw-cursor, which is quite rickety (see above)
#
# It's up to applications to manage cursor display:
#   - clean up where it used to be
#   - display the cursor before waiting for a key
#   - ensure its location appropriately suggests the effect keystrokes will have
#   - ensure its contents (and colors) appropriately reflect the state of the
#     screen
#
# There's no blinking, etc. We aren't using any hardware-supported text mode
# here.
