Print String

void kbdcrt_printstr( char *buf, int len );

Where:

buf - string pointer

len - string length

0x1000000 - Raw character and color/attribute flag

Description

This routine writes a string to the scrollable Output Area buffer just like a PRINT statement. The characters are displayed at the current PRINT position using the current color and enhancement attributes. Control characters and enhancement and color characters (128-143) are handled just like during a PRINT.

If the Raw flag is set in the string length then the string contains two bytes for each display character. The character is in the first byte and the color and enhancement attributes are in the second byte. This format is the same as used by the kbdcrt_dispstr routine. The string is copied directly into the Output Area buffer and the characters are displayed with the specified color and enhancement attributes.

Example

kbdcrt_printstr( "This is a test", 14 );
