TFT Command Line Tool for Raspberry Pi.
This may works with other boards like OrangePi/NanoPi.
You can operate from command line.
You can show any text string.
You can choose BCM2835 library/WiringPi library.

- WiringPi Library
This project uses the wiringPiSetupGpio() function to initialize GPIOs.
If you use it on a board other than the RPI board, you may need to change the GPIO number.
As far as I know, there are these libraries.- WiringPi for OrangePi
- WiringPi for BananaPi
- WiringPi for NanoPi
- WiringPi for Pine-64

*When a regulator(It's often AMS1117) is mounted on the back, it's operated 5V.
*When a regulator is NOT mounted on the back, it's operated 3.3V.
You can change any pin.
Pin define is "pin.conf".

DRIVER
The information provided by sellers on Ebay or AliExpress is largely incorrect.
You waste time if you don't choose the right driver.
There are many variations of the 2.4 inch shield.
You can use this to find out your driver.
This is for Arduino UNO.
Do not use this on the RPI as the GPIO on the RPI is not 5V tolerant.
Never believe the seller's information.

At first, edit "tft.conf".
Set your TFT's resolution.
If you use SPI TFT, check "spi.conf".
Set your pin assignment.
If you use 8bit Parallel TFT, check "pin.conf".
Set your pin assignment.

This tool uses the following as default fonts:
- fontx/ILGH16XB.FNT // 8x16Dot Alphanumeric & Japanese Hankaku KATAKANA
- fontx/ILGH24XB.FNT // 12x24Dot Alphanumeric & Japanese Hankaku KATAKANA
- fontx/ILGH32XB.FNT // 16x32Dot Alphanumeric & Japanese Hankaku KATAKANA
- fontx/ILGZ16XB.FNT // 16x16Dot Japanese 2byte Code(SJIS, Not unicode)
- fontx/ILGZ24XB.FNT // 24x24Dot Japanese 2byte Code(SJIS, Not unicode)
- fontx/ILGZ32XB.FNT // 32x32Dot Japanese 2byte Code(SJIS, Not unicode)
Changing this file will change the font.
You can add your original fonts.
The format of the font file is the FONTX format.
Please refer this page about FONTX format.
There is a font file editor.
This can be work on Windows 10.
You can download FONTX Editor fron here.
You can change these fonts to display the characters of your country.
- Default
From 0x00 to 0x7f, the characters image of Alphanumeric are stored.
From 0x80 to 0xff, the characters image of Japanese are stored.
fontx/ILGH16XB.FNT // 8x16Dot Alphanumeric & Japanese Hankaku KATAKANA
fontx/ILGH24XB.FNT // 12x24Dot Alphanumeric & Japanese Hankaku KATAKANA
fontx/ILGH32XB.FNT // 16x32Dot Alphanumeric & Japanese Hankaku KATAKANA
0xCA is Japanese.
- Localize
From 0x00 to 0x7f, the characters image of Alphanumeric are stored.
From 0x80 to 0xff, the characters image of your country are stored.
fontx/XXXXX16.FNT // 8x16Dot Alphanumeric & Local characters
fontx/XXXXX24.FNT // 12x24Dot Alphanumeric & Local characters
fontx/XXXXX32.FNT // 16x32Dot Alphanumeric & Local characters
0xCA is LATIN.
step1) download fontxedit.exe.
step2) download BDF font file from Internet. I downloaded from here.
step3) import one of them into your fontxedit.exe. This tool can convert from BDF to FONTX.
step4) adjust font size.
step5) check font pattern.
step6) save as .fnt file from your fontedit.exe.
step7) upload your font file to PI. Your font file is put in fontx directory.
step1) change font file.
if (sv.fontsize == 16) {
strcat(fnameh,"fontx/16dot_your_font_file");
strcat(fnamez,"fontx/ILGZ16XB.FNT");
} else if (sv.fontsize == 24) {
strcat(fnameh,"fontx/24dot_your_font_file");
strcat(fnamez,"fontx/ILGZ24XB.FNT");
} else if (sv.fontsize == 32) {
strcat(fnameh,"fontx/32dot_your_font_file");
strcat(fnamez,"fontx/ILGZ32XB.FNT");
}
step2) enable UTF to ISO.
By default,The 3-byte UTF code is converted to 2-byte SJIS code.
SJIS is Japanese extended character set.
The following changes will convert a 3-byte UTF code to a 1-byte ISO code.
//sv.save[num].size = String2SJIS((unsigned char*)argv[2], strlen(argv[2]), sv.save[num].sjis, MAXCHAR);
sv.save[num].size = String2ISO((unsigned char*)argv[2], strlen(argv[2]), sv.save[num].sjis, MAXCHAR);
step3) change character set.
"ISO_8859-1" will convert 3-byte UTF code to 1-byte ISO code.
Please change to the character set of your country.
if((cd = iconv_open("ISO_8859-1","utf-8")) == (iconv_t)-1){
return 0;
