 Above we can see the Pico drive, and there is a folder 'lib' with the driver st7789.py, then in the top level folder there is a test file called text-text-examply.py

+<color #ed1c24>**Please note, there has been some improvements in the driver since this page was started, the driver is now called st7789nf.py not st7789.py.**</color>

-  * You can download the driver {{ :st7789.zip |here.}}

-  * You can download the test Python file {{ :text-text-example.zip |here.}}
+  * You can download the test Python file {{ :screen-test.zip |Here.}}
