bgrolleman 11eb2584ef Initial commit — Amirine Cosplay Lights
Arduino Uno + WS2812B LED strip controller with a text-based lightshow
system. Shows are defined as .txt files (hex color + fade duration per step),
converted to PROGMEM headers by convert_all.py, and navigated at runtime
via a debounced button (tap/double-tap/hold). BSD 2-Clause license.

"""
convert.py — Convert a single .txt show file to an Arduino header.
Use this to preview or test a single show.
For the full workflow (all shows + regenerate shows.h), use convert_all.py.
Usage:
python converter/convert.py path/to/show.txt
Output:
show_<name>.h written to the current directory.
Move it to arduino/cosplay_lights/ then run: make upload
Show file format:
Each step is one line: #RRGGBB, duration_ms
Lines starting with // are comments and are ignored.
Blank lines are ignored.
duration_ms controls how long the fade from the PREVIOUS color takes:
0 = instant switch (no fade)
500 = half-second fade
5000 = five-second slow fade
To hold a color, add a second step with the same color and the hold time as duration:
#FF0000, 0 // snap to red
#FF0000, 2000 // hold red for 2 seconds
#0000FF, 3000 // fade to blue over 3 seconds
