sAPI
Hello everyone. I present to you sAPI. It is used to connect multiple screens in a single one and use it as a whole. It has all the same commands that a monitor peripheral does, and it uses full x, y coordinate system, which means that you have to write your code as if the screen was one huge.
Planned Features:
Example Program:

Planned Features:
- Event handler, which would return the screens coordinates.
- Drawing of different shapes.
- Different monitor size support.

- sAPI.setMonitors(monitortable) Takes a monitor table as an argument. In the table you have to have a table for each row, even if you have only one. Inside the rows you only have to list the monitor ID's not the full names. Example table: {{"25", "19"}, {"18", "24"}}
- sAPI.printNames() Finds all connected monitors and prints their network names on the screens.
- sAPI.getSize() Returns the size of the whole screen (All monitors summed up together).
- sAPI.setCursorPos(x, y) Sets the cursor position to the x and y coordinates.
- sAPI.getCursorPos() Returns the current cursor position.
- sAPI.writeText(text) Writes text starting from the current cursor position.
- sAPI.printText(text) Writes text starting from the current cursor position but also wraps the text if it is longer than the screen width (divided by spaces if possible).
- sAPI.slowPrintText(text, delay) Same as sAPI.printText, but you can set the delay between each character.
- sAPI.clear() Clears the entire screen.
- sAPI.clearLine(y) Clears the specified line.
- sAPI.setBackgroundColor(color) Sets the screens background color.
- sAPI.setTextColor(color) Sets the screens text color.
- sAPI.fillBox(x, y, width, height, character) Draws a box at the specified coordinates with the specified width, height and character.
- sAPI.setTextScale(scale) Sets the scale on the entire screen.
