the original font of the HD44780 with European character set, but includes
only characters from ISO 8859-1 and has been extended with bar graph and icons.
The t6963 driver now has its size to be configured in pixels! The size in
characters is automatically calculated based on the cell size. This makes
internal calculations more easy.
- Add 68-familiy style interface support and make it configurable.
- Make delay configurable.
- Correct swapped display halves.
- Resurrect vBar / hBar functions.
- Fix icon definitions and modify set_char for common data format.
- Limit the maximum size to 40x16 (240x128 pixel) and change the RAM locations
to make use of 8 KB only. (If one's display is larger and has more memory this
may have to be changed.)
- Drive control lines using defines from lpt-port.h without using a function.
- Use timing.h for delays (which are now optional).
- Remove any use of the graphic area and mode settings, except for optionally
clearing of graphic memory on start-up.
- Remove any cursor related stuff.
- Handle displays correctly which width (in pixels) is not a multiple of the
cellwidth (e.g. 128x64).
- Remove double buffering (display updates are already really fast).
- Update text and font memory using AUTO WRITE function.
- Remove the bignum stub. Now at least something is displayed.
- Fix character offset for bar graphs.
- Make local functions static and inline the most commonly used read / write
functions.
- Remove instructions that have been transfered to the User's Guide.
- Remove the unused line drawing function.
- Pass through indent.
- Add more comments to the initialization code.
- In the user guide remove table with wiring scheme by LCD pin but add a new
one for bitshaker wiring.
* Add Doxygen comments (also for internal functions, shortened for API).
* Document initialization.
* Remove some unused variables and defines.
* Pass through indent.
* Remove references to LCD pins from documentation and add some warning.
in the 4bit and 8bit wiring. This fixes problems with flickering backlight if
a slow parallel port is used. IMPORTANT: This may require a hardware change!
* In code comments use the same line names as in the user's guide (Y1/X1
instead of Y0/X0).
* Add documentation about hd44780-ftdi's 4bit mode.
options in the config file because:
* <arg> can only be used within <cmdsynopsis>.
* <cmdsynopsis> does not allow text outside <command> and <arg>.
* <arg> does not allow decorating elements like <literal> or <emphasis>.
This fixes#2803057.
Add shortcut entities for commonly used parameters (yes/no, size).
Remove Debian patch which is obsoleted by above changes.
