Anti-Aliased Text Plotter
-
Here's the save:
1591027View Save 1591027It plots text in a font I designed myself, with 2-bit antialiasing - that is, white, 2 shades of grey, and background.
Here's the character set:
It is free to use, no credit needed.
If anyone has suggestions for an improved plotting system, that would be great!

This is very cool.
The only down-side of it is that you have to wait for the letter to be typed to type another letter. I suggest you make a system where there is a box that save every letter you typed and push it when the first letter has been typed (System that store signals). There are lots of designs that you can use, Protals, pistens and lots of things.
Unless you don't want that. you can make a gate that opens when the machine is ready for the next command.

the memory you are looking for is LTR-Memory, short for "Load-Task-Register" it's a type of carry-only memory used in specific buffers.
some can be found in arK's AEC2 and in Darkn1883's Electronic Storage. -

yes i would certainly call the desired function a queue. :)
what font is that? it looks like a small modification to the original TPT font?
-
Not a modification, I designed it all by scratch. Parts of it were inspired by the TPT font, but overall I prefer this one.

Yeah, but you used a 3x5 fixed-width font, whereas I used a 5x7 variable-width one. Also, mine has a keyboard.
By the way, I believe @G-LinuxorU made the first one, I even helped him a bit.
Nice work making it so fast though.
UPDATE: I've redesigned it, made it almost twice as fast, and increased the capacity of the RAM. It now uses a RAM of my own design.
