Request for Jeff: 20x2 lcd display support

Post by maroon2k »

Hello Jeff and thanks for all your hard work!

I have a request: would it be possible to add an option for 20x2 character display support?
I believe the memory layout and addresses are the same as for 16x2, so it wouldn't require too big changes?

The reason I want to use a 20x2 display is that you would be able to show longer filenames without scrolling - as soon as filenames are long enough that they start scrolling, browsing through disk images takes a lot longer...

(For the same reason, as someone requested in another thread, it would also be nice to be able to hide the .hfe extension from being shown in the lcd. At the moment I've solved this by removing the extension completely from the image filenames, but this is hardly the optimal solution...)

thanks
Ville
