Homebrew text not showing up

[DarkFlare69]

Using this main.c, the text won't show up on the screen:

#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <3ds.h>

int main()
{
    gfxInitDefault();

    while (aptMainLoop())
    {
        gspWaitForVBlank();
        hidScanInput();

        printf("Hello World!")

        u32 kDown = hidKeysDown();
        if (kDown & KEY_START)
            break;

        gfxFlushBuffers();
        gfxSwapBuffers();
    }

    gfxExit();
    return 0;
}

It's probably something obvious, like missing an include or something, but pls help anyway.

You forgot to do a console init. Add a consoleInit(GFX_TOP, NULL) or a consoleInit(GFX_BOTTOM, NULL).

Okay, I will. Thanks. And it's strange because I got this straight from libctru...

Wow. They screwed up.

@smealum - Fix

you didnt get this "straight from ctrulib", you modified the code pretty heavily... @MassExplosion213, you should maybe actually read the code at the other end of the link before saying stuff like that.

either way, ctrulib does include an example for rendering text : https://github.com/smealum/ctrulib/blob/master/examples/graphics/printing/hello-world/source/main.c

Sorry. I just assumed.
EDIT: And yes, I screwed up my consoleInit function. My bad.

It's pretty much the same thing with a few notes. And if "heavily" is removing a few notes, the white pixel example, and replacing //Code with hello world!, then I'm scared for our future in computer programming

But overall it looks like we just need to add the console init.
