I just discovered that after the 5.1.0 upgrade, this is what you now get from eips with no parameters:
Code:
usage:
to print strings: eips [row] [col] [-h] string
-h for highlighted text
to show image: eips -g|-b image_path [-w waveform -f -x xpos -y ypos -v]
-g for png, -b for bitmap
-w waveform can be gc16 gl16 or du, default is gc16
-f for full update, default is partial update
-x -y in units of pixels
-v for inverted picture
to paint a retangle on screen: eips -d l=a,w=b,h=c [-x xx -y yy -w wf]
a is gray level in hex, b is width, c is height, with optional xx yy location, waveform mode
to clear display: eips -c
to paint checker: eips -q
to paint grayscale: eips -l
to paint pattern: eips -p
to paint barcode: eips -r barcode
to print fb info: eips -i
This is MUCH better than just experimenting and hoping to find something useful in the previously undocumented parameter list (using startup scripts as examples).
I already knew most of these, but the ones I did not know how to use look quite useful. I like that "paint a gray rectangle" option, and the bitmap support.
Thanks amazon and lab126!
while :;do eips -q -wdu;usleep 130000;eips -v -q -wdu;usleep 130000;done (K5)

Just to say that
[root@kindle root]# eips -g /mnt/us/usr/bin/pictures/gameboy.png
works okay on a 3
but actually
[root@kindle root]# eips -g /mnt/us/usr/bin/pictures/gameboy.jpg
works good as well
