v1.0.0 (2017-07-30)

This is the first release that can be considered stable. It involves some API changes, so you might need to adapt your scripts (mainly because some default arguments to CharLCD were removed).

If you notice any documentation that hasn't been updated yet to the newer API, please let us know!

  • [add] Add RPLCD.__version__ attribute
  • [fix] Fix bug in auto linebreak algorithm (#53)
  • [fix] Fix bugs in show_charmap script (#52)
  • [fix] Fix error in A02 character map
  • [chg] Remove default args for gpio.CharLCD, pins and numbering mode always need to be specified explicitly from now on (#60)
  • [chg] Remove default for i2c.CharLCD i2c_expander parameter, always needs to be specified explicitly from now on
  • [chg] Remove all enums (Alignment, CursorMode, ShiftMode, BacklightMode), replace them with string based API (#67)
