Keyboard Example
/*
The TFT_eSPI library incorporates an Adafruit_GFX compatible
button handling class, this sketch is based on the Arduin-o-phone
example.
This example diplays a keypad where numbers can be entered and
send to the Serial Monitor window.
The sketch has been tested on the ESP8266 (which supports SPIFFS)
The minimum screen size is 320 x 240 as that is the keypad size.

#define TFT_DC PIN_D3 // Data Command control pin
#define TFT_RST PIN_D4 // Reset pin (could connect to NodeMCU RST, see next l>
#define TFT_CS D5 // Chip select control pin to TFT CS
#define TFT_DC D6 // Data Command control pin to TFT DC (may be labelled RS = Register Select)
