Some initial attempts to get #libschrift to render #pixel fonts in the TrueType format.

Hoping to use this to generate fonts in the macintosh #bitmap font format so I can use it with my macfont font renderer I wrote for #btprnt.

Created a reference card for my #trig rhythm computer using #btprnt, and my #macintosh font renderer. The file is procedurally generated using the #janet scripting language.

My #macintosh font renderer in #btprnt can now render things in a textbox, with automatic word breaks.

The machine, now visualized using my #btprnt 1-bit graphics library.

The program here consists of 3 64-bit words.

The first word writes the pattern "10".

The second pattern writes the pattern "1011".

The third pattern loops it back to the beginning.

As a result, the output is a repeating sequence of "101011101011101011..."

Got some initial glyph rendering happening using #btprnt.

All worth it to see Susan Kane's 'M'.

Working on an ANSI C bitmap font renderer for classic macintosh fonts. Finally got a glyph to print to terminal and it feels great. Eventually this will be rendered via my #btprnt monochrome bitmap interface.

Lots of shameless copy + paste work from this Objective-C project here: https://github.com/bzotto/ClassicMacTypography

Can't sleep, so I decided to implement a waveform display for audio files using #btprnt, my 1-bit graphics library I've been working on. Quite pleased with the results!

This took longer than I care to admit, but I managed to get a little reference card made for my line sequencer in #monolith using my #btprnt library + #janet.

Procedural graphics are a mentally draining task. I hope I can make things easier for myself in the future.

Added some #janet bindings for #btprnt, which I think will prove to be very useful. As a proof of concept, I wrote a Janet program that uses btprnt to render itself to an image.

Some rudimentary integer-based text scaling added. It's not really rich formatted text... just textboxes with hand-calculated positions. #btprnt #grook #bitmap #monochrome
