After @loboris did excellent work making a font converter for the Python world, here's my contribution for the Arduino / C world: truetype2gfx, a simple online tool to turn TrueType fonts into GFX include files ready to be used with the M5Stack or any other device that has the Adafruit display library.

There will be some small changes over the next days and I'll put the source on github. Please play with this and tell me what you think. Praise, suggestions and criticism welcome. Please do not announce outside of this forum, I'd like to do that when the github is up so people have a way to reach me.

The interface is clean and easy to use

One question/suggestion, there's a couple of characters/glyphs I find useful such as the degree sign '°', micro 'µ' and plus/minus '±'. To use them currently I have to modify an existing glyph that is pulled across in your program such as `. Is there currently a way to add the real glyphs from the true type font or would I have to modify your font converter?
Thanks again for this tool.
