Description

Displays the console window

Displays the console output on the screen. All ASCII characters can be output.

This function internally creates a display list and starts the graphics task.

flag is the frame buffer swap flag passed to the argument of the nuGfxTaskStart function.

NuSystem can display up to four console windows. The settings that can be made for the console window include the window display position, window size, show/hide the window, and scroll on/off. The character attributes that can be set are the color and blink on/off.

All 4 console windows are supposed to be displayed in the initial state. However, CPU power is required to some extent, to display console windows. Therefore, we recommend that you use the nuDebConWindowShow function to set windows that are not used to a non-display condition.

The functions for these various settings are shown below.

Function Name	Function
nuDebConWindowSet	Set window position and size
nuDebConWindowPos	Set window position
nuDebConWindowSize	Set window size
nuDebConWindowShow	Show/hide window
nuDebConScroll	Scroll on/off
nuDebConTextColor	Change text color
nuDebConTextAttr	Set text attributes
nuDebConTextPos	Text display position
nuDebConClear	Clear the console window

These functions can also be used with the release-use library.

Please note that when the nuGfxInit function is not used, then the 0th microcode in the microcode structure array defined by the nuGfxSetUcode function is used. High resolution has been supported since version 1.1.

Beginning with Version 2.06, F3DEX_GBI_2 is defined by nusys.h. Therefore, nuDebConDispEX2 is usually used. If F3DEX microcode is used, define F3DEX_GBI before nusys.h.
