bit2hex.py

magic/bit2hex.py

A throwaway helper for writing stipple patterns into mos.24bit.dstyle.

Magic’s display styles describe a fill pattern as eight hex bytes, one per row of an 8×8 bitmap. Writing that by hand is unpleasant, so the two patterns here are drawn as strings of ones and zeros

stipple = [
"11111111",
"10000011",
...
]

and printed as hex:

python3 bit2hex.py

The two patterns are diagonal hatches leaning in opposite directions. Edit the lists and rerun to make a new one; there is no command line interface.

bitpattern.py does the inverse.
