157Functions:
158----------
159
160 unsigned
161 GLCcrc(row, col)
162 unsigned row, col;
163
164 Positions the GLC cursor at ('row', 'col') preparatory
165 to writing text. Returns the calculated cursor address.
166
167 GLCcurs(crs)
168 short crs;
169
170 Turns the cursor on or off.
171
172 unsigned
173 GLCcxy(x, y)
174 unsigned x, y;
175
176 Positions the GLC cursor at ('x', 'y') preparatory to
177 writing graphics. Returns a bit mask for the pixel.
178 Leaves the cursor address in lcdcurs.
179 Limits: 0 LE x LE 511, 0 LE y LE 63.
180
181 GLCdisp(dsp, crs, blk1, blk2, blk3)
182 short dsp, crs, blk1, blk2, blk3;
183
184 Sets the overall display, cursor and block status values.
185
186 GLCinit()
187
188 Initializes the GLC.
189
190 GLCplot(x, y, val)
191 unsigned x, y, val;
192
193 Plots a dot at x, y. The dot will be dark if val is non-zero.
194
195 GLCtext(row, col, s)
196 unsigned row, col;
197 char *s;
198
199 Sets the GLC cursor to ('row', 'col'), then writes the
200 character string pointed to by 's'.
201 Cursor must start and end on the same line.
202 No error checks are done.
203
204 GLCwrts(s)
205 char *s;
206
207 Writes the character string pointed to by 's' at the
208 current cursor position on the LCD display.
209 Cursor must start and end on the same line.
210 No error checks are done.
