- 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.
