Note that when writing text to the MFD, the line length is limited to 16
characters. While you can pass a longer string, the library will only consider
the first 16 characters for writing to the display.
# Building the library
Build has been tested on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on x86_64.
## Prerequisites
You will need the following packages:
* automake
* autoconf
* libusb-1.0-0-dev
## Installation
1. Clone the parent Git repository
2. CD to the libx52 folder and run autogen.sh
3. Run configure; make and sudo make install.
The test program is not installed, there will be a separate command line utility
in the future that utilizes the library and communicates with the joystick.
