pi-clock - A simple e-paper clock

The idea here is to run a simple wall clock. :-)

The display panel we're using is a Waveshare 13.3" e-paper display. There's an online hardware manual, as well as a checked-in PDF manual. The display driver is vendored from the Waveshare repository.

System Settings

• Install the Japanese locale: sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales The clock displays the date in Japanese, using the ja_JP.UTF8 locale.

• Enable SPI: sudo raspi-config, under Interfaces. This is needed for communication with the E-Paper display.
