The Bavarian German FFS entry is the shortest FFS alternative to date. Boom.
Dang. Poet Wendell Berry has died. @tellio (if he is still on this network) introduced me to Berry and his poems and other writing via #clmooc, and I always enjoyed Berry's thoughts on the land, on life, on his observations.

"Berry's writing is a lesson for the ages on slowing down, noticing, and deeply loving and respecting our surroundings."

Once Papyrix has initialized a display driver it needs fancy software to generate visuals to display! Which may happen early in the boot sequence in order to show error messages.
So today I'm reading some of its support classes, leaving the central GfxRenderer class for tomorrow! Followed by some support libraries over the rest of the week.
A bitmap class decodes/validates bitmap headers, & applies an Atkinson or Floyd-Steinberg dithering via support classes.
