WonderWitch/FreyaBIOS/Text

The Text interrupt provides a text output display using one of the WonderSwan's screens.

Interrupts

INT $13/AH=$00 - text_screen_init

• AH = $00

Initializes a text window (see INT $13/AH=$01) with the following default settings:

• X, Y = 0, 0
• width, height = 28, 18
• starting tile = 512 - font tile count (in ASCII mode)

• DX = starting tile

Initializes a text window starting at (BL, BH) with a size of CL x CH tiles on the configured screen.

This requires the following number of tiles, starting at DX:

• font tile count (in ASCII mode)
• width x height (in Shift-JIS and mixed modes)

INT $13/AH=$02 - text_set_mode

Available modes:

• 1 = mixed (ASCII and Shift-JIS) mode
• 2 = Shift-JIS mode

INT $13/AH=$03 - text_get_mode

• AH = $03

Return:

• BX = Text mode

INT $13/AH=$04 - text_put_char

• AH = $04

• BH = Y position in text window
• CX = Character code

INT $13/AH=$05 - text_put_string

• AH = $05
• BL = X position in text window
• BH = Y position in text window
• DS:DX = String to print

Return:

• AX = Number of characters displayed

INT $13/AH=$06 - text_put_substring

• AH = $06
• BL = X position in text window
• BH = Y position in text window
• CX = Maximum length of string to print
• DS:DX = String to print

Return:

• AX = Number of characters displayed

INT $13/AH=$07 - text_put_numeric

• AH = $07
• BL = X position in text window
• BH = Y position in text window
• CL = Width of area to write number in
• CH = Flags
• DX = Number
• DS:SI = Output buffer (optional, see flags)

Return:

• AX = Number of characters displayed

Numeric output flags:

7  bit  0
---- ----
o... slzx
|    ||||
|    |||+- 0 = output in decimal
|    |||   1 = output in hexadecimal

|    ||      1 = pad with zeroes
|    |+------- 0 = align to right
|    |         1 = align to left
|    +---------- 0 = number is unsigned
|                1 = number is signed
+----------------- 0 = output to text window (at BL, BH)
                   1 = output to buffer (DS:SI)

INT $13/AH=$08 - text_fill_char

• AH = $08
• BL = X position in text window
• BH = Y position in text window
• CX = Length
• DX = Character code

Repeat the specified character code CX times.

INT $13/AH=$09 - text_set_palette

• AH = $09
• BX = Palette color (0-15).

Set the palette used by printed text.

INT $13/AH=$0A - text_get_palette

• AH = $0A

Return:

• AX = Palette color (0-15).

Retrieve the palette used by printed text.

INT $13/AH=$0B - text_set_ank_font

• AH = $0B
• BL = Starting character code.
• BH = Bit depth; 0 = 1bpp, 1 = 2bpp.
• CX = Number of tiles.
• DS:DX = Input buffer containing font data.

INT $13/AH=$0C - text_set_sjis_font

TODO

INT $13/AH=$0D - text_get_fontdata

• AH = $0D
• CX = Character code.
• DS:DX = Output buffer for the character's tile data.

INT $13/AH=$0E - text_set_screen

• AH = $0E
• AL = Screen ID (0, 1).

INT $13/AH=$0F - text_get_screen

• AH = $0F

Return:

• AL = Screen ID (0, 1).

INT $13/AH=$10 - cursor_display

• AH = $10
• AL = Cursor status (0 = disabled, 1 = enabled).

Controls the visibility of a blinking cursor on the text screen.

INT $13/AH=$11 - cursor_status

• AH = $11

Return:

• AX = Cursor status.
