23;=============================================================================================
24;
[186]25; Strings are compressed in a simple manner:
26; 1. The two most common characters, space and null, are removed
[202]27; 2. Format specifiers are reduced to a single byte, including length information
[186]28;
29; Format of bytes in the string are:
30; 01 xxxxxx Character in x plus StringsCompressed_NormalBase
31; 10 xxxxxx Character in x plus StringsCompressed_NormalBase, followed by a null (last character)
[202]32; 11 xxxxxx Character in x plus StringsCompressed_NormalBase, followed by a space
[186]33; 00 1 yyyyy Character/Format in lookup table StringsCopmressed_TranslatesAndFormats
34; 00 0 yyyyy Character/Format in lookup table StringsCompressed_TranslatesAndFormats, followed by a null
35;
36; StringsCompressed_NormalBase is defined by the compressor, but is usually around 0x40,
37; which gives a range of 0x40 to 0x7f, or roughly the upper and lower case letters.
38;
39; StringsCompressed_TranslatesAndFormats is a lookup table with the first few bytes being translation
40; characters, and the last few bytes being format jump offsets from DisplayFormatCompressed_BaseFormatOffset.
41; The dividing line is defined by StringsCompressed_FormatsBegin
42;
43; The assignments of the first two bits above is not by accident. The translates/format branch is 00
[202]44; which is easy to test for. The '01' for "normal" (no null or space) and '001' for translates/format "normal"
[186]45; match, allowing the translates/format codes to be shifted left by 1 and then tested with the same instructions.
46;
[202]47; It is always possible to say that a null character follows the current character - thus there is
[186]48; no way (nor need) to specify a zero character.
49;
50; Note that this code is optimized for size, not speed. Since this code is used only during initialization
51; and only for the user interface, small performance hits should not be noticed. It will seem odd to do so
52; much "preload", just in case a branch is taken, but that is cheaper (in size) than adding additional branches.

59; Format Handlers
60;
61; Names of format handlers are DisplayFormatCompressed_Format_* where * is
[202]62; replaced with the format code after the '%' in the original string,
[186]63; with '-' replaced with '_'.
64;
65; Parameters:
66; DS: BDA segment (zero)
67; AX: Parameter to Format
68; ES:DI: Ptr to cursor location in video RAM
69; Returns:
70; DI: Updated offset to video RAM
71; Corrupts registers:
72; AX, BX, CX, DX, SI
