In the [previous post] we switched from assembly to [Rust], a systems programming language that provides great safety. But so far we are using unsafe features like [raw pointers] whenever we want to print to screen. In this post we will create a Rust module that provides a safe and easy-to-use interface for the VGA text buffer. It will support Rust's [formatting macros], too.

_Note_: You need to [cross compile binutils] to build it (or you create some symbolic links[^fn-symlink] if you're on x86_64).

[^fn-symlink]: You will need to symlink `x86_64-none_elf-XXX` to `/usr/bin/XXX` where `XXX` is in {`as`, `ld`, `objcopy`, `objdump`, `strip`}. The `x86_64-none_elf-XXX` files must be in some folder that is in your `$PATH`. But then you can only build for your x86_64 host architecture, so use this hack only for testing.
- [RustOS]: More advanced kernel that supports allocation, keyboard inputs, and threads. It also has a scheduler and a basic network driver.
