Hi there,

I’ve got a Keybow arriving tomorrow and I’ve also ordered the 1.12" Mono OLED because I saw somebody on /r/MechanicalKeyboards making a custom macro pad with an OLED and got crazy jealous.

Since I’d like to use the two together and am new to both devices, I wanted to ask for some advice.

The Keybow uses LUA and the display uses the Luma.OLED Python library.

I was wondering first if the two can co-exist just fine using running the OLED off of the I2C breakout on the Keybow. I’m assuming I could just run .py files on the Pi?

Secondly, since LUA can execute system commands with os.execute, could I make a key combo run a .py file on the Pi to change the display?

Sorry if these are stupid questions, just trying to get some context as to what’s possible since I know the Keybow is stripped down Raspian.
