Right now the LCD parameters are hardcoded. It would be good to allow larger displays with larger font sizes.

Just make the variables

SCREEN_WIDTH 128
SCREEN_HEIGHT 32

adjustable via the cfg.txt

That is the general idea, however the display is initialized much sooner than the cfg.txt being loaded. The display is meant to be one of the first things to load so that any early errors can be displayed on boot.

Hopefully if a larger display is used, it can still be initialized using the old values then can be re-initialized using the correct values later on. This would mean that any boot errors are displayed in a small font, but that's probably a "good enough" implementation.
