# Internals: Interface Layers
|
|
|
|
Nga provides a virtual processor and an extensible way of adding
|
|
I/O devices, but does not provide any I/O itself. Adding I/O is
|
|
the responsability of the *interface layer*.
|
|
|
|
An interface layer will wrap Nga, providing at least one I/O
|
|
device (a generic output target), and a means of interacting
|
|
with the *retro image*.
|
|
|
|
It's expected that this layer will be host specific, adding any
|
|
system interactions that are needed via the I/O instructions.
|
|
The image will typically be extended with words to use these.
