"Wrap around" will be supported with Output, and clipping will be supported with Text.

Btw, the maximum font size will be 16 x 16.

Great! Tilemaps are going to be so easy with this...

A question: Can we have different sizes for different chars?

Question: What kind of drawing methods will be supported? Will they be the same as xLIB? (overwrite, OR, XOR, AND, LCD update0?

Also will a 6x8 letter be the same size as a 8x8 one? (Since 1 byte is a multiple of 8 pixels)

Ah ok, thanks for the info. I wondered about drawing methods since a lot of people like to have white text on black backgrounds.

That won't be hard.  I can do that

Btw would it be very hard to add XOR/OR logic too? With XOR we could use grayscale text/sprites maybe (Reuben Quest style) and/or blinking text animations. AND might be useful too, for masking, but I think the person can easily combine OR'ed and XOR'ed fonts together to do it.
