[Suggestion] Few new features I could prepare PRs for if wanted

[timiles]

Hi there,

I added the following features on my fork - if any are of interest, I'd be happy to polish them up (ie settings into config rather than hard coded, etc) and send pull requests:

• BTC price in USD/GBP (using coindesk);
• foreign currency exchange rates (using yahoo finance);
• custom text scrolling component for news headlines, I found the built-in marquee too slow.

Thanks for all your code so far!
Tim

The built-in marquee tends to suddenly pop up the headline and then scroll it if it's longer than the horizontal dimension of the screen. It ought to scroll the text in from the edge starting with the very first letter instead of blitting the first part en masse and then scrolling the remainder

Hi @gynnantonix, the ScrollTextView on my fork (timiles@c22d464) scrolls in from the right, if you're interested in taking a look :)
