# lcd-echo

This program uses my LCD_i2c.py module to write from the terminal directly

to a simple character LCD.

This module has to be in the same directory as the lcd-echo program in order to

function correctly.

To get the i2c address of the LCD, it reads from the file "/etc/lcd-echo.conf"

This configuration file should be formatted in the following way:

```

    address = 0x27

    width = 16

    max_lines = 2

    backlight = True

    clear_time = 60

```

Please note that this configuration file will not be generated automatically.

# Usage

lcd-echo accepts the following options:

```

-h, --help                          show help message

-s [STRING], --string [STRING]      string to write to the LCD

-c, --clear                         clear the LCD

```
