revBytes utility

Copyright © 2021 Édouard FISCHER

revBytes is a small utility that transforms the output .ttf file from a Quartus ii compiled project into an app.h file suitable for integration into an arduino Vidor MK 4000 sketch.

This transformation is required since the bit order has to be reversed before burning the bitstream into the flash memory.

usage

revBytes output.ttf app.h

output.ttf is put the output_files folder of the project by Quartus ii.

Help can be displayed with:

revBytes -h

or

revBytes --help
