Thanks Sean
I'll continue with the old code.
Is it possible to pull the last old version from git?
In retrospect after spending more time going through your hat code it would have worked fine with a little repackaging.
Biggest issue is finding an inexpensive transflective display.
Anyhow what I did will work.
Used to do this sort of thing for a living 25 years ago.
Nice to see I can still do it at 70 :-)
Lot easier with libraries used to have to do everything from scratch.
My code works OK but needs a lot of error checks and threading.
Added pwm backlight control and buzzer for feedback.
Setup bluetooth serial console so I can work on while all sealed up.
Odds are there will be something to fix.
Good chance it will be the wifi that needs to be fixed :-(
