- <h2>Behavior</h2>
- <p>This component implements a very simple dumb terminal. It receives a sequence
- of ASCII codes and displays each printable character. When the current row
- becomes full, the cursor moves to the following line, possibly scrolling all
- current rows up if the cursor was already in the bottom row. The only supported
- control sequences are: backspace (ASCII 8), which deletes the last character in
- the final row, unless the final row is already empty; newline (ASCII 10), which
- moves the cursor to the beginning of the following line, scrolling if necessary;
- and form-feed (ASCII 12, typed as control-L), which clears the screen.</p>
- <h2>Pins</h2>
- <dl>
- <dt>West edge, upper pin (input, bit width 7)</dt>
- <dd>Data - this is the ASCII value of the next character to be entered into
- the terminal.</dd>
- <dt>West edge, lower pin marked by triangle (input, bit width 1)</dt>
- <dd>Clock - when triggered while the write-enable pin isn't 0, the
- current ASCII value on the Data input is processed by the terminal.</dd>
- <dt>South edge, leftmost pin (input, bit width 1)</dt>
- <dd>Write Enable - when 1 (or floating or error), a clock edge will result
- in processing a new character from the data input. The clock and data inputs are
- ignored when Write Enable is 0.</dd>
- <dt>South edge, second pin from left (input, bit width 1)</dt>
- <dd>Clear - when 1, the terminal is cleared of all data, and all other inputs
- are ignored.</dd>
- </dl>
- <h2>Attributes</h2>
- <dl>
- <dt>Rows</dt>
- <dd>The number of rows displayed in the terminal.</dd>
- <dt>Columns</dt>
- <dd>The maximum number of characters displayed in each row of terminal.</dd>
- <dt>Trigger</dt>
- <dd>If the value is <q>Rising Edge,</q> then when the clock input changes
- from 0 to 1, the data input is processed (when enabled by the write-enable
- and clear inputs).
- If it is <q>Falling Edge,</q>, then this happens when the
- clock input changes from 1 to 0.</dd>
- <dt>Color</dt>
- <dd>The color with which to draw the text appearing in the terminal.</dd>
- <dt>Background</dt>
- <dd>The color with which to draw the terminal's background.</dd>
