Klib.
Please download Klib.api.rtf to your PC to read it with WordPad or alike rtf viewer.

What is the purpose of this library?
I'm sorry, but I dont see the point of this.

What is the purpose of this library?

Already realized in this preliminary version :
- Western Latin bitmap font (CP1252)
- Complete revised keyboard routine in userland:
. a unique scancode for each key
. a keymap for Spain
. deadkey handling
. entry of Alt-num keys

Next to come:
- additional keyboard layouts
- unicode raster fonts
- styled text
- Rtf editor

Compiler, Loader, Debugger for Mas (Modern/Macro assembler).
- runs on KolibriOS
- handles 64-bit operations
- abstraction from the processor specifics through the use of macro's

The end result will be a full fledged Supercard like IDE with programmable stacks, cards, fields, and buttons.
The IDE will be useful for delivering special applications with GUI support to international users.

This is a dead end road. Such things should be done system-wide level.
