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.
- 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.
* 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.
- explicitely declare void arguments
- make a few string args const
* better support for shorter displays in server screen
* make target to create top level tag file
- port_access_full is now called port_access_multiple and has a count parameter (LPT port stuff should be in lpt-port.h)
- Updated calling source files too
- Added support for ports in higher range, so that PCI LPT cards will work too (but I can't test this myself...)
- Enhanced formatting of in-file documentation a bit
- Updated docs of port.h in lcdproc-dev
Enhanced(?) timing.h with DELAY_AUTOSELECT.
Cheered up some comments, moved #ifndef FOO_H #define FOO_H to just after
the copyright and explanation comment.
