Description

Why is Adafruit MAX7219 Driver for 7 Segment Displays limited to Numeric Digits Only? Well, dots and dashes are supported but no alpha characters at all? This is kinda short sighted no? Can you not please enhance this driver? Would you please enhance this driver to include alpha characters?
