# Convert a font C source file to Python source.

# Copyright Peter Hinch 2016
# Released under the MIT licence
# Files created by GLCD Font Creator http://www.mikroe.com/glcd-font-creator/
# The code attempts two ways of deducing font height and width in pixels.
# Files produced by the GLCD Font Creator have a '//GLCD FontSize'  comment line which species these.
# This is used if it exists. However some files on the website lack this and have an initial record
# written into the data: this is used if necessary.

# Usage:
# ./cfonts_to_py Arial16x16.c timesroman.c
# puts files into a single Python file defaulting to fonts.py (-o name can override default)
# with a dictionary 'fonts.fonts' indexed by name and the value being a PyFont instance.
# The name index is the font filename less path and extension

# TODO check that new format below works for all cases of character line length as per inded
# terminal7hex = b'\x08\x0C\x20\x80\x01'\
# b'\x08\x00\x00\x3F\x00\x40\x80\x3F\x00\x00\x00\x0F\x80\x10\x40\x0F\x80'\
