[chbot] Microcontroller graphics library

[FieldMate Precision]

Hi Charles,

This app (75 Euro) is a great tool for building monochrome 
icons/pics/sliders etc for pretty much any LCD graphics driver IC.. 
ST7565R ,RA8835 etc
https://bitmap2lcd.com/

Saves heaps of time and a great way to get a nice GUI by being able to 
import any graphics image to the LCD as a hex array pixel map.

Cheers
Grant
