Is 'text mode' actually text mode or is it graphics mode? The user's manual isn't clear...
It's text mode. If using a Win32 console, XTerm or Linux framebuffer, the screen mode is really graphics, but from a program's point of view that's a text mode anyway.
Sorry. I suppose I should clarify. How do I print simple text to the screen while in text mode?
Use C stdio or C++ iostream as usual. The GRX text I/O functions are for graphics mode only.
