Description: The ledgrid module contains a single LEDGrid class which aims to be as
        identical as possible to the public interface of the Raspberry Pi
        `Sense HAT library`_, such that it is useful in mocking up software for
        it and other such devices.

        Many existing Sense HAT LED demos and software will work using the
        following import statement::
        
            from ledgrid import LEDGrid as SenseHat
        
        However, the internal implementation is rather simplified and uses
        pygame instead of the hardware HAT.
        
        It requires pygame_ to be installed (not currently available through
        pypi), an additional optional dependency is PIL (i.e. Pillow) which is
        required by some features (notably scrolling text with the
        show_message method).
        
        It supports every Python version since 2.7.  It is contained in only
        one Python file, so it can be easily copied into your project if you
        don't want to use pypi. (The copyright and license notice must be
        retained.)
        
        At the bottom of the ledgrid.py file are some examples of usage. You
        can run these examples using::
        
            python3 -m ledgrid
        
        Or if you have the file locally::
        
            python3 ledgrid.py
        
        Many thanks to Richard Hayler. The LED class, graphics, etc are based
        on his `8x8GridDraw`_.
