I want to make a PR to extend character set for SevenSegment.py #30

Closed joshgc closed 3 years ago

joshgc commented 5 years ago

Hi all,

I have a working version of SevenSegment.py in my local branch that adds a variety of new characters to the seven segment display driver. Its backwards compatible, doesn't add any significant overhead (loading on my RPi0W still takes < 150 microseconds) and works correctly when inverted. Also I added some comments about the logic behind the driver just to help the next reader be informed about how it works.

Do I have to do anything special to submit the PR? I'm getting a 403 from my git push.

Josh

Ah, sorry, so as an example now messages like this are possible:

'HELP' '59\degC' 'Err7'
