<Guest98> folks, I wanted to create something like shell on FPGA. There is some term like character generator which is used to create characters
<Guest98> So I input k from keyboard and character generator takes this character and supposedly puts it on vga screen
<Guest98> Can someone name that term? Is it 'character generator'?
<Guest98> Someone also gave me a repo which he/she had coded in vhdl, gitlab repo.
<xiretza[m]> you will probably want a text buffer that contains code points (one for each character position on screen), a font that maps code points to pixel values, and something that builds scan lines by combining the code point from the text buffer with the pixel data from the font
<Guest98> I found this. Thanks. Can I work with vhdl and verilog both in symbiflow?
<Guest98> Since above code is in vhdl. I work with verilog for yosys -> nextpnr -> icestorm toolchain.
<xiretza[m]> you can use GHDL to feed VHDL into yosys
<gatecat> https://github.com/AndresNavarro82/vt52-fpga might also be interesting to you
<xiretza[m]> oh damn, fancy
<Guest98> fantastic. Thanks a ton gatecat. On top of that it's GPLv3 licensed! Wow!
<Guest98> Can I take this code and license a derivative code with AGPLv3?
<Guest98> Or must I have GPLv3?
<gatecat> neither a lawyer nor the author of that code, but aiui the legal situation of copyleft licenses in respect of gateware is very unclear in any event
<Guest98> aiui?
<tpb> Title: licensing - Can a user relicense LGPL as GPL or GPL as AGPL? - Software Engineering Stack Exchange (at softwareengineering.stackexchange.com)
<tnt> Guest98: yes, resulting derived work would be agpl.
<Guest98> thanks tnt :)
