METHOD OF DISPLAYING A HANGUL USING THE SPRITE DATA STRUCTURE ON RISC OS

摘要

PURPOSE: A Korean output method using a sprite data structure in a risk operating system is provided to easily and simply output Korean using a sprite file structure in a risk operating system. CONSTITUTION: A sprite area control block is generated for describing the entire number of bytes of a sprite data, the entire number of sprites in a sprite data and the number of offset bytes of the first sprite(101). The generated sprite area control block is written into a data buffer(102). One Korean character is read from a Korean character bit map data buffer(103). The sprite area control block which describes the characteristic of each sprite included into the sprite data buffer is generated(104). The sprite area control block generated in 104 is written into a sprite data buffer(105). The Korean character bit map data read in 103 is converted into a sprite image and is written into the sprite data buffer(106). It is judged whether the end of the Korean character bit map data buffer is reached. If reached, the data is stored into the sprite data buffer, and the control process is finished(107). If not reached, the routine is returned to 103, and the above processes are repeatedly performed.
