Wow, the libraries and docs around this display are really lacking. I did get to the point of being able to render text in a custom font, but the Adafruit libraries in are a pain to work with.

There’s a world in which I could achieve the effect I want if I used a a full-on Pi Zero instead of a Pi Pico, but I am still hoping to keep power to a minimum in order to run off a battery for ~a month.

I might abandon my plans tool use this display for an Oblique Strategies box and look for something better suited to the task.
