Hi,

I want to change the fonts which are displayed on the LED Array. I opened font.txt, redrew the fonts, ran fontmaker.py and it converted the ###'s into hexadecimal (pretty cool!) but cant figure out how to save the new file as a .h

Also, I would like to save it as a different named file, "newfont". I can't figure out where in the code it actually reads the font.h file. If I just import newfont.h instead of font.h, would that work?

Many thanks..... having LOADS of fun with this!

:-)

Hi typdcoyne,

The script fontmaker.py just sends its output to the standard output. Normally standard output just prints out to the screen, however you can redirect standard out to a file by using the > operator.

python fontmaker.py > font.h

should do what you are looking for. Note, on Unix this will overwrite whatever was in font.h. I'm pretty sure that is also true in Windows, but if it gives you problems just remove or rename the old font.h.

Fabulous....

Thanks Humberto. I did

python fontmaker.py > newfont.h and it worked.

Making brilliant progress. Thanks again.
