Re: An error which occur in time

Thank you, Daniel and Peter! I'll go straight for the wifi/sockets issue.

Peter, this is the third obstacle which I'm facing in uPython and which seems to be solvable with your uasyncio library.
Thanks you for your great thorough documentation!

Re: Can't access REPL on macOS - Works on Windows

Try to reset the module, while connected to the UART. I have same issue and I'm using Mac. I'm also using Esplorer (java based) as it has a proper interface and Micropython reference as well, unlike 'screen'.

Re: 64x32 led matrix driver

Thank you both. @shaoziyang: I think your code can't be easily adapted, as the interface is different @mcauser: The reason I chose this HUB08 led matrix is the price - $9 for 32x64 matrix is pretty good deal. If I go for chained MAX7219, it will become more expensive (I might try it though) I would ...

UDP instead of MQTT

Hi, I've got esp8266-01 (1mb) which I intend to use as a wifi button. The esp-01 will notify for button press a raspberry pi, where raspberry pi will be in AP mode and esp-01 in workstation mode. There won't be internet or router connections i.e. it will be a closed network. My question is if it's a...

Re: Suggested standard approach to font handling

Thank you for explaining this and for the maintaining the writer class. It might be connected to my lack of knowledge but I found out that if set font points to odd number, the converted python font is rendered better than if I set even number of points. The pictures I posted are with even number of...

Re: Suggested standard approach to font handling

So it seems that you have made quite few changes since I used the Writer class :) I used your example code fro writer class from the git repo. I've changed the pin setup in ssd1306_setup.py to match my Pins setup. Have you tested the code on esp8266? I'm getting this error: Traceback (most recent ca...

Re: Suggested standard approach to font handling

Cool! I'll test it in the next few days and post the result here.
Thanks for the prompt reaction on this. I was playing with an OLED display connected to Nodemcu and I wanted to output messages in my own language :)

Re: Suggested standard approach to font handling

Is there any chance you can add an option to micropython-font-to-py to select charset from utf-8 or another charset ascii codepage (eg 855)?
I need to use Cyrillic fonts and I'm stuck with "????"s :)
