examples/messenger.aup keeps the lines typed here and sends each to the
other node, and keeps the other's. The check runs Alice's and Bob's
nodes, each with a key of its own, sealing to the other's and taking
lines only from the other (pure-serve --key, --send, --seal, --sender),
each drawn by Vega in the node, with a relay between them: a line typed
on Alice's display reaches Bob's node and is drawn on his, Bob's answer
posted by a program is drawn on hers, each last frame is the one the
vega command draws from that node's store, and the relay saw no line's
text nor a field's name, only one sealed session each way naming the
sender's key.

The vega host builds a second way, as build/vega-surface.so, which
pure-serve maps and runs beside its connection threads (pure-serve
--surface vega-surface.so -- display ..., Pure's design 010). There the
app it draws is a reader of the node's last save, read where it is,
and what people type goes to the node's owner: a key press as the key
input's event, the typed line as the text input's, each applied and
saved with the node's requests. It waits on its input devices and the
node's changes descriptor together, leaves timers and signals to the
node, and stops with it. The library calls the app model pure-serve
exports and links none of its own; it exports pure_surface_run alone.
Without --live or --input it takes no input: the node's saves alone draw
it.
The check gives a node an item over HTTP, then runs the display in the
node with recorded keys (an item, Enter, Tab, Space): the last frame is
the one vega tui draws for the same state and keys, it came back from
the display controller as drawn, and the node's views show both items.

vega display --live reads the kernel's input events with no library:
keys become Pure's key names and the text they type on a US layout, going
through the TUI's own handling (the input line takes text, else the app
takes keys); a mouse moves an outlined pointer and clicks, a touch screen
presses where it is touched, scaled from the device's range; the line
pressed is the row. --input FILE reads recorded events to their end and
prints the last frame, which is how this screenless Pi checks it: after
typing two items with Shift, Enter, Tab, Space and a touch on a row, the
display's last frame is the TUI's after the same keys and click, and came
back from the display controller as drawn.

vega display draws the same frames on a display with the kernel's mode
setting and no library between: a connected connector's mode on a CRTC, its
primary plane flipped between two dumb buffers by atomic commits, the grid
as many cells as fit. Frames are drawn in cached memory and copied over,
since blending over write-combined buffers read them back slowly (a 1080p
frame took 370 ms; now 20.6 ms with a vertical sync and the check below).
This Pi has no screen but its display controller has writeback connectors:
--writeback sets a mode on one and takes every frame back as the controller
put it out. Each came back exactly as drawn, and the new check finds it the
pixel surface's frame for the same grid, pixel for pixel.

vega pixels runs the same scripts as tui --dump and writes each frame as
an image: the view's cells (only those on screen are evaluated) become
glyphs, each drawn once per size with the exact area of its curves, in its
tone's colour on its row's background. No page, no scene in between. A
1920x1350 grid takes 12 ms a frame here, writing the image included.
Symbol files carry the font's line now (format 3: ascent and descent where
format 2 kept zeros), the cell height and baseline; and the build tool takes
fonts in order, later ones filling the codes earlier ones lack: a CJK font
alone drew ambiguous-width arrows two cells wide in a one-cell grid, which
the new check caught, so a monospace Latin font comes first and Hangul after.

src/ held two parts, the surfaces that show modules to people and the
symbol format with its CPU and GPU drawing. As in Pure (design 009), top
level directories are now the parts, and the README says what each builds.

Pure builds the app model and the tree store as one library with headers in
core/; Vega no longer lists Pure's files, so a new one there cannot break it.

Symbol files (VEGASYM1) hold glyphs and icons as quadratic curves, verified
once per symbol and then read in place. vega-symbols builds them from fonts
(through FreeType, losslessly: twice the font's units keeps TrueType's
implied points whole) and from solid SVG paths (arcs included), refusing by
name what an icon asks for that symbols cannot hold.
The reference rasterizer computes each pixel's covered area exactly: every
curve's integral of clamp(1 - x) dy inside the pixel, split where it crosses
the pixel's sides. The Slug-style two-ray average first tried missed FreeType
by 15.4 levels on average at 12 px; exact area is within 1.2-3.5 at 8-16 px,
and where it differs most it matches 64x64 supersampling, not FreeType.
Reaching an outline costs 4.6-29x less than through FreeType, but the files
are 2.1-6.6x larger than glyf or CFF: design 002 has the numbers and the next
question (points shared along contours, lines without control points).

examples/board.aup is a kanban board: people add and move cards on
Vega's surfaces, programs post JSON to the same module served by
pure-serve, with no routes written. The checks write cards with the CLI
into a store, serve that store over HTTP where a program moves one and
adds another, and read it again with the CLI, the focus still on the
card it was on.

vega tui|web MODULE --watch replaces the running app's module when its
file is written again (aup watch writes it); states keep their values by
name through pure_app_replace and every web page hears of it. The file is
compared by the digest of its bytes, at most five times a second, so a
module of the same size written within the same second is not missed; a
module that does not load leaves the app as it was and is not tried
again. Modules alternate between two slots so a failed load never touches
the running one. Scripts get swap MODULE; whether a module runs frames is
now a property of the screen.

Every surface takes --store PATH and runs the app on Pure's tree store,
so a list typed in the terminal is there the next time, on any surface.
Vega and the app carry no saving code; Vega saves the last frame changes
when it ends.
Checks let the CLI and the sentence surface take turns on one store and
match the model each time, and reopen an interactive session's store.

Vega reads a verified Pure module by convention: a table view with a
label column is a list (with optional badge, detail and tone), any other
table is a table, <table>_focus is its focused row, a title view is the
title and other views are fields. lib/vega.aup gives aup apps the tones,
which say what a row means; each surface decides how it looks or sounds.
vega tui draws the screen in a terminal, keeps the focused row in view
and evaluates only the cells on screen; vega cli prints plain lines for
pipes; vega say speaks the screen and each focus change as sentences.
Display width handles Hangul, CJK, emoji, combining marks and controls.
tests/check.py compares the CLI and NUI output with a reference model of
examples/todo.aup line for line, checks 9,600 TUI frames for scrolling,
focus, badge alignment and the number of cells evaluated, drives the
interactive TUI on a pseudo-terminal, and runs every aup example on every
surface.

|
|
| |
Vega supplies the interface vocabulary (lists, tables, cursors, tones) as a
library that aup programs use; aup itself keeps only general projections and
modules.
|
|
|
Vega turns interface specifications and data presentation (cursoring,
coloring, lists, tables) into TUI, CLI, GUI and NUI surfaces on Pure. It waits
for the language and toolchain that target Pure; this commit records its
place, scope, principles and open questions only.
