• My next slight mystery (apart from not surviving a reset/power cycle) is that the font has become very ugly. I am not sure at what point this happened, and actually thought it might be the LCD, so replaced. But same effect ...

    SPI1.setup({ baud: 1000000, sck:B3, mosi:B5 });
    var ow = new OneWire(B13);
    var g, temp;
    function onInit() {
      clearInterval();
      temp = require("DS18B20").connect(ow);
      g = require("PCD8544").connect(SPI1,B6,B7,B8­, function() {
        setInterval(onTimer, 500);
      });
    }
    function onTimer() {
      // Get the temperature
      var t = temp.getTemp();
      // Round it to the nearest 0.1
      t = Math.round(t*10)/10;
      // Now draw!
      g.clear();
      g.setFontBitmap(); // simple 8x8 font
      g.drawString("Temp",2,0);
      g.drawLine(0,10,84,10);
      g.setFontVector(25); // large font
      g.drawString(t, 0, 15);
      g.flip(); // copy this to the screen
    }
    onInit();
    

    Incidentally the default 0,0 for Temp, puts the text off the LHS of the screen slightly, so I changed to 2,0. Changing setFontVector to other numbers has little effect .

    Is this to be expected/as intended ?
