Special Characters

[DJDevon3]

I'm not sure how to best deal with special character switching. We might need some exceptions. Default json has

"base_grid_size": [
    14,
    5

I'm thinking something like

"special_grid_size": [
    14,
    5

and

"emoji_grid_size": [
    14,
    5

appended to the bottom of the json. that should provide endpoints for mode switches and popup windows with different character selections like on a mobile device. due to the size of TFT's I think the default should be the mobile device layout.

Here's an example for special character layout

{
  "special_grid_size": [
    10,
    4
  ],
  "rows": [
    {
      "name": "row0",
      "keys": [
        {
          "label": "1"
        },
        {
          "label": "2"
        },
        {
          "label": "3"
        },
        {
          "label": "4"
        },
        {
          "label": "5"
        },
        {
          "label": "6"
        },
        {
          "label": "7"
        },
        {
          "label": "8"
        },
        {
          "label": "9"
        },
        {
          "label": "0"
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "row1",
      "keys": [
        {
          "label": "-"
        },
        {
          "label": "/"
        },
        {
          "label": "\:"
        },
        {
          "label": ";"
        },
        {
          "label": "("
        },
        {
          "label": ")"
        },
        {
          "label": "$"
        },
        {
          "label": "&"
        },
        {
          "label": "@"
        },
        {
          "label": ""
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "row2",
      "keys": [
        {
          "label": "#+="
        },
        {
          "label": "."
        },
        {
          "label": ","
        },
        {
          "label": "?"
        },
        {
          "label": "!"
        },
        {
          "label": "'"
        },
        {
          "label": "\uf191",
          "key_value": 42,
          "font": "symbol_font",
          "scale": 1,
          "col_span": 4
        }
      ]
    },
    {
      "name": "row3",
      "keys": [
        {
          "label": "ABC",
          "key_value": 225,
          "col_span": 2
        },
        {
          "label": ":)",
          "key_value": 226
        },
        {
          "label": "space",
          "key_value": " ",
          "col_span": 5
        },
        {
          "label": "return",
          "key_value": 40,
          "col_span": 4
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

This is equivalent to pressing the "123" key on iOS mobile keyboards.
