I have a great collection of ansi colorscripts if they want to use it to test the displays. I saw they had some pretty basic ones

Definitely swing by and let 'em know. They've been in the ASCII (and maybe ANSI) scene for quite a time

It would be great if they mentioned what this is useful for somewhere near the beginning of the readme.

Exactly. They have this text on patreon about page, just not on project readme. The rest is the copy/paste from there:

ACID DROP is a custom firmware designed for the LilyGO T-Deck, an ESP32 microcontroller popular among DIY enthusiasts. Unlike any existing firmware, Acid Drop is built from the ground up in C++, aiming to bring a wide range of features to the T-Deck. Currently in beta and under active development, we have plans to include IRC, SSH, ChatGPT, Gotify, Wardriving, and Meshtastic integration. With a focus on privacy and security, we're implementing features like WireGuard support, MAC address randomization, and secure boot.

We also have big plans and active development underway to make ACID DROP a powerful tool for pentesting. Planned features include creating Wi-Fi access points, executing evil port attacks, performing deauth attacks, and conducting BLE attacks. These tools are intended for testing on your own devices, giving you the ability to explore and understand security vulnerabilities in a controlled and ethical manner.

Seems like an interesting project, I hope to see it working with Reticulum
