That would be perfect! Anyone know what would be involved in doing this?
I don't think there's any way to do this from the LCDproc side without
code modifications. You might have better luck suggesting it to the Myth
devs, since LCD output is being worked on very actively right now. The
new Myth LCD daemon (in SVN) is very slick!
It'd have to be done via an LCDproc driver. Most of the displays are
character-based and can only handle a few custom characters, the most
popular ones using the HD44780 chip which doesn't have a very good
larger font (it uses the second line to show the descenders of g,q & p
properly). If you've got a display that can handle double-size
characters then you just need the LCDproc driver to set it that way.
There's no native way for an LCDproc server to that (from what I remember.)
