mc and 12 pt

[sp00ck]

I'm old man. Can You show mc midnight commander and 12 pt font?
mcedit too (or compare with vi)
show zip (inside mc) or ssh file system (inside mc)
how tiny font must be for 80 chars horisontaly?

I'm not involved with this project but the display is 400 × 240 px, so to fit 80 chars you'd need a font 5 px wide, including gaps between letters. The pixel pitch is 0.15mm × 0.15mm (172 ppi), so each char would be 0.75mm wide.

I have the same display module on an Adafruit breakout board; the default 5×8 font in their CircuitPython libraries is legible (the pixels aren't blurry or low-contrast) but very small.

(excuse my grubby fingerprints -- I haven't peeled off the protective film)
