4.4 Drawing images
GRMON has support for drawing both test screens and images in PPM ASCII format. The
transcript below show commands that draw the built-in test screen in different modes. Note
that the DVI transmitter must be initialized for the correct bit depth.

The test screen consists of a framed white cross on black background.
4.5 Interacting with the SPI boot PROM
GRMON provides support for interacting with SPI memory devices via its SPI Flash layer.
SPI memory devices can be controlled both over SPICTRL and SPIMCTRL cores. In the
examples below we will use the SPI memory controller core (SPIMCTRL) since it is attached
