Method and system for writing text characters to a raster scan video display (50, 51) operated in an all-points-addressable, or graphics mode, and for reading characters thus written. A graphic video display buffer (34) directly refreshes the display (50) with graphics data received from a microprogrammed processor (20). The processor (20) writes a character to the display (50) by selecting and loading into the graphics video display buffer (34) a text character dot pattern retrieved from main storage (25, 27), and expanded to a selected pixel and color format, and reads a character previously written by comparing a dot pattern retrieved from the display buffer (34) with dot pattern retrieved from main storage (25, 27). |
