hi all,
i've got a set of patches i've been working on to support a new platform.
it's still a work-in-progress, but a couple of issues have come up that
i'd like to ask for input on.
this platform has an LCD panel and a backlight. both are controllable to
a certain extent. i'd like to add a set of new commands to support the
features:
bkon backlight on
bkoff backlight off
bkset percent set backlight brightness to "percent" of max
lcdon turn lcd on
lcdoff turn lcd off
lcdtst draw a test pattern on the lcd
lcddraw x0 y0 x1 y1 r g b draw a rectangle on the lcd, scaling R/G/B
values to hardware supported (ie, the cmd
values are in 0-255, but the hardware only
does RGB565 ... causes "255" to be mapped
accordingly)
and accompanying cmd_lcd.c, and cmd_bklite.c files.
of course, i could re-work this to be more like
bk {on,off,set percent}
lcd {on,off,tst,draw x0 y0 x1 y1 r g b}
to not take up so many command values...
any thoughts?
