library interface ra8876 to support 10.1" display: but this question is not necessarily specific to this lib so please read on ....
one of the ways that the library draws characters is through an ascii hex table and a function that indexes into the table to pick up the hex code needed to draw the character, literally one pixel at a time, one line at a time. the lib supports 3 character sizes - 8x12, 16x24, 32x48. i want more.
here's examples of the ascii tables:
const unsigned char ascii_table_8x12[1140] = {
0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,
0x00,0x00,0x00,0x08,0x08,0x08,0x08,0x08,0x00,0x00,
0x08,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x14,0x14,0x00,0x00,0x00,
0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x14,0x3e,0x14, ..etc
const unsigned char ascii_table_16x24[4560] = {
0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,
0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,
0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,
0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00, ...etc
the 32x48 array's size is 18240!!!
FINALLY MY QUESTION: i can't believe that someone actually typed in ALL these values . what i'm hoping exists is an "array generator" so i can generate compatible array(s) for different size characters.
to see the function(s) that indexes the table (if it helps), download:
