This is the README of the showtext tool, which is part of the GraphLCD
base package.
written by Andreas Regel (andreas.regel AT powarman.de)
See the file COPYING for license information.
Description:
------------
showtext is a program to show a user defined text with a user defined
font on a graphical LC Display. It supports all controllers the GraphLCD
driver library supports.
The font must be in a special format (*.fnt), which can be created with
the crtfont tool.
Using showtext:
--------------
showtext [-c CONFIGFILE] [-d DISPLAY] [-f FONT] [-x XPOS] [-y YPOS] [-uib] text [more text]
-c --config specifies the location of the config file
(default: /etc/graphlcd.conf)
-d --display specifies the output display
(default: the first one in config file)
-f --font specifies the font that is used for the text output
-x --xpos specifies the x-position where the text starts
-y --ypos specifies the y-position where the text starts
-u --upsidedown rotates the output by 180 degrees (default: no)
-i --invert inverts the output (default: no)
-b --brightness set brightness for display if driver support it [%]
(default: config file value)
example: showtext -c /etc/graphlcd.conf -f f17.fnt "Line1" "Line2"
