After about an hour of skimming the wiki API list to find a way to load (not edit) a paint image onto a monitor. How would I get it onto the monitor?

[Bomb Bloke]

paintutils.loadImage() to get the image into memory, term.redirect() to switch the default rendering device, then paintutils.drawImage() to get it onto that.

Eg:

local mon = peripheral.find("monitor")

local image = paintutils.loadImage("someImage")

local oldTerm = term.redirect(mon)

paintutils.drawImage(image, 1, 1)

term.redirect(oldTerm)
