The Character Helper plug-in provides a convenient way to design 8x8 characters and put them into memory.
Installation
.P "CH"
Usage
.U [addr]
where addr is a valid 16-bit hexadecimal address.
When used without an address, Character Helper will clear the screen and create an 8x8 grid, with each colon corresponding to a bit in a custom character. Anything except a colon or a space can be used to turn "on" that bit. Cursor around the grid and create your character.
The Character Helper tool may then be used with an address. It will read the grid, convert it into 8 bytes of character data, and store the character at the specified address.
