XUtils [API] [V1.2]
An API I'm working on, will help with X.
V1.2: http://pastebin.com/PAiYZRuZ
V1.1: http://pastebin.com/Z05xWxyJ
Demonstrations (Latest Version):
1. "Clear" Background
Documentation (Latest Version):
xutils.init()
Arguments:
None.
Returns:
tScreen = xutils.init()
tScreen = your initialized screen variable.
Example Usage:
tScreen = xutils.init()
xutils.text(tScreen, "Hi", 1, 1, colors.red)
xutils.render(tScreen)
Note:
Unless you are experienced with handling more than one screen, make
sure to use the variable that you initialized your screen with all
of your xutils functions in that program.
function extract(tColors, …)
_ = {}
for i=1, 3 do _ = string.sub(tColors[arg[1]][arg[2]], i, i) end
return _[1], _[2], _[3]
endxutils.extract()
screen variable.
Arguments:
xutils.extract(tScreen, x, y)
tScreen = your initialized screen variable.
x = x-coordinate of the extraction pixel.
y = y-coordinate of the extraction pixel.
Returns:
background_color, text_color, text = xutils.extract(tScreen, x, y)
background_color = background color of that pixel.
text_color = text color of that pixel.
text = text that is on that pixel.
Example Usage:
tScreen = xutils.init()
_, _, text = xutils.extract(tScreen, 1, 1)
print('The text that is on pixel (1, 1) is "'..text..'"')
Note:
The values of the background and text colors are in Hexadecimal and 2 is
not put to the power of them.
This does not actually alter the values, it just returns them.
If your screen was just initialized, your text and background colors will
be white and the text will be " ".xutils.insert()
Arguments:
xutils.insert(tScreen, text, text_color, background_color, x, y)

xutils.insert(tScreen, "-", e, 6, 1, 1)
xutils.render(tScreen)
Note:
The values of the background and text colors must be in Hexadecimal and
2 should not be put to the power of them.xutils.text()
Arguments:
xutils.text(tScreen, text, x, y, [text_color, background_color])
tScreen = your initialized screen variable.
text = what you are writing.
x = x-coordinate of the start of the text.
y = y-coordinate of text.
text_color = text color of the text, nil if the text will adopt the
text color that is already in the pixel(s).
background_color = background color of the text, nil if the text
will adopt the background color that is already in the pixel(s).
Returns:
nil.
Example Usage:
tScreen = xutils.init()
xutils.text(tScreen, "Hello World", 1, 1, colors.red)
xutils.render(tScreen)
Note:
Will error if the string is too long to be portrayed within a 51 by 19
pixel space, given the x and y arguments of the function.xutils.color()
in the XUtils API.
Arguments:
xutils.color(tScreen, background_color, x1, y1, [x2, y2])

y1 = y-coordinate of the pixel/corner of the rectangle.
x2 = x-coordinate of the opposite corner of the rectangle.
y2 = y-coordinate of the opposite corner of the rectangle.
Returns:
nil.
Example Usage:
tScreen = xutils.init()
xutils.color(tScreen, colors.red, 1, 1, 5, 5)
xutils.render(tScreen)
Note:
Will error if any of the x-coordinates are not within 1 to 51 and if
any of the y-coordinates are not within 1 to 19.xutils.render()
Arguments:
xutils.render(tScreen)
tScreen = your initialized screen variable.
Returns:
nil.
Example Usage:
tScreen = xutils.init()
xutils.text(tScreen, "Rendered stuffs", 1, 1)
xutils.render(tScreen)xutils.unload()
Arguments:
xutils.unload(tScreen, path)
tScreen = your initialized screen variable.
path = file you want to save the screen variable to.
Returns:
nil.
Example Usage:
tScreen = xutils.init()
xutils.unload(tScreen, "MyBlankFile")xutils.load()
Arguments:
xutils.load(path)
path = file your screen is saved on.
Returns:
tScreen = xutils.load()
tScreen = your initialized screen variable.
Example Usage:
tScreen = xutils.load(CatPicture)
