Hey, not to spam or anything, but I have made a program (SpriteLib) which lets you edit the font a little and use the display routines I even included an example (try example 2) to show what it can do. It is an ASM program and it sets the font hook to work during BASIC program execution and for the hex digits. Example 1 has more maps, but was created early on without the full use of all of the functions...

http://www.ticalc.org/pub/83plus/asm/graphics/spritelib.zip

Nah, it's not spamming.  Quite a nifty program, if I say so myself!  So don't take the next line as an insult, because it's quite impressive.  However, just like your program can do things mine can't, I'm adding features that SpriteLib doesn't have.

So, it's like Omnicalc fonts, but with more versatility, and the user doesn't have to do anything?

Well, the user does have to run something to enable/disable hooks in his basic program, and create his own font of course.  Other than that, it is more versatile, faster, and can be done with regular Output(), Text(), etc. commands.

It would be nice if one could install an APP on the calc that could make a brand new locale-based font and change the locale in the program temporarily so that the other font is displayed.

(i.e. the foreign language programs preinstalled on the calcs.)

I didn't realize it was going to work with Text and Output. That's pretty nifty! =) So the hooks "point" to your custom routine to display text when the program is enabled as opposed to TI's?

Exactly.  I just need to understand how to get it to work.  No trouble yet Wink

Sounds neat.  I don't know how much I'd use it, but it's a neat alternative. Smiley

Now that I understand hooks, I'm going to use Output() to let people specify a font character size.  Text() will display the text.  I'm also going to have something that will update the screen when all text is drawn.

So, a person will run pgrmText to enable the special font routines.  If there is a need in the Ti-Basic program to use the regular Ti-Basic font (with normal Output and Text functions), another hooked function is run to switch back and forth.  At the end of the program, pgrmText is run again.

What if someone wants to use the homescreen at one point, though? Huh?

Maybe ANOVA? (although that's a 2 byte token, if I remember)

Correlation will now come with two programs.  The first will be pgrmCORELATE.  This program will be small--hopefully 200 bytes or less--and is used for initalizing and deinitalizing.  The other program is pgrmFONTROUT.  It's much bigger, but it can be stored in archive.

Both programs are required for Ti-Basic programs wanting to do custom fonts using Correlation.

Ah ok so it installs font files and hooks?

Also could you answer the first question in http://www.omnimaga.org/index.php?topic=5245.msg85392#msg85392 ?

pgrmCORELATE installs hooks, but does not need to install fonts.  The user specifies a font in his program by using Select().

Sorry about not answering that first question.  If I read it correctly, Output() will display a homescreen-sized font, but it will not appear on the homescreen when the program ends.

It does in BASIC. Try it for yourself on a real calc.

It does in Basic because it uses the Ti-OS font routines, which save to a Text Buffer.  With correlation, I'm using special routines that do not save to a text buffer, or else gibberish would appear when a Ti-Basic program ends.
