Hi, Tim.
Thanks for the pointer. I'm looking through the github repo for the RPi-Tron-Radio. That should be enough for now.
The Odroid Show2 "terminal" has a primitive graphics mode but it's not nearly fast enough for a UI like this. In any case it doesn't have a touch screen. Straight text with selectable fg/bg colors is its strong point. For this, bash has been adequate even if its string handling is, shall we say, idiosyncratic.
Last night, I spliced in some handshaking code from the Odroid Show2 repo and brought down my refresh time to about a second. I think I may be able to shave off a few more tenths. George Lucas got away with one-second screen wipes in the original Star Wars, so why can't I
I'm still doing market research on other display possibilities.
Regards,
Kent
