				=== About ===

stdd (short for "simple time display daemon") is a handy little daemon for
the Raspberry PI device that can be used to display the current time on a
7 segment display with a HT16K33 backpack from Adafruit Industries. It 
makes heavy use of the python libraries published by Adafruit to control
the display via I2C.

=== USAGE ===

see ./stdd 

=== Dependencies ===

stov depends on the following software to be installed:

	* python 2.7 or higher (lower 2.x versions might work but are not tested 3.x is not supported)
	* python-smbus
	* python-pcrtl (optional)

=== COPYING ===

see LICENSE

=== Configuration ===

       HW_ADDRESS:    hardware  address  for  your  display, a common value is
       "0x70" use i2cdetect to find yours if it doesn't match

       BLINK_COLON:   define if you want the middle colon to blink, 0 = off, 1
       = on

       BRIGHTNESS_HIGH:    value  used for "high" brightness, valid values are
       0-15

       BRIGHTNESS_LOW:     value used for "low" brightness, valid  values  are
       0-15

       SET_BRIGHTNESS_LOW: value  used  for "low" brightness, valid values are
       0-15

       SET_BRIGHTNESS_HIGH:     time of the day to change the brightness  from
       low to high

       SYSLOG_LEVEL:  maximum  syslog  level to log, stdd uses debug, info and
       error

       SYSLOG_FACILITY:    syslog facility to use for logging (default:  user,
       can also be daemon)
