Able to compile a sample standalone project on mac

[delhoume]

without having any mcu or display.
makes debugging easy on a desktop
defines a headless config similar to arduino.inl

Yo might be interested in the few
#ifdef ESP_PLATFORM
in FastEPD.inl
and the definitions iin headless.<h,cpp> that allow to not depend on espidf or arduino.

The sample is adapted from the same one in Arduino and complies with

clang -g antialias_font.cpp ../../../src/FastEPD.cpp ../../../src/Group5.cpp ../../../src/headless.cpp -I ../../../src -D HEADLESS -o antialias_font

it generates a PGM ! from the frame buffer.

this PR is marked as WIP, I am not sure you will be interested in the principle of using the library on the desktop.
If you like the idea, you certainly will trash this PR and start clean...

I have a number of issues, but §i am not sure some of them are linked to my code and my limited knowledge of FastEPD internals.

• it seems that sometimes, antilaliased text is not displayed, from my tests, it may be that he cursor is out of screen.
• there is no cp1252 conversion when computing getStringBox,
  As it is now, FastEPD is a very good, versatile and feature packed library, with a clean design.

Ok I'll have a look, and will most likely trash this PR 😚 Le dim. 17 août 2025, 23:41, Larry Bank ***@***.***> a écrit :
