Abstract

A data processing display system comprises a display device capable of displaying a desired image and including a plurality of points each capable of being selectively illuminated. A main memory storage device is also included in the system and comprises a plurality of addressable storage locations, each location capable of storing a multi-bit display word therein. At least some of the addressable storage locations include in the aggregate a number of bits at least equal to the plurality of points of the display device. A display bit map of the desired image is thus capable of being stored and defined in the at least some addressable storage locations.
