Interface CharacterEncoder
- All Known Implementing Classes:
- AnyCharsetEncoder, Format6Encoder, LatinEncoder, Simple8Encoder, Utf8Encoder
public interface CharacterEncoder
Interface for encoding characters for use in the Label section of a .img
file.
Older units are only able to display uppercase ascii characters. Newer ones
can also display latin1 characters and perhaps lowercase too. I believe
that it is possible to buy Japanese units that display Japanese characters
too.
So we need different implementations to deal with all this. It is made
harder because the possibilities are not known. Many experimental
implementations may be needed before settling on a good one.
