Hiding the explicit written date (e.g. Sun, 25 Nov 18), is now easy. Just go to the correct section of thie function and uncomment the lines, as suggested in the details of the function.
This update is nothing major. It splits the main programm in 2 files, one for the programm itself (now containing mostly functions) and a new file, icon_positions_locations, containing all icons and their respective locations (path) as well as the position on the E-Paper Display).
Apart from that, new notes have been added which help to understand what the script is trying to achieve.
Some parts have been improved in this version (1st Oct 2018). The main one is that the E-Paper display is now put to sleep. Waveshare did not mention for a long time that not doing so will eventually damage the screen. The sleep mode has been implemented now.
Apart from this, the main details can now be inserted at the top of the file and don't have to be searched up anymore. Some debug messages have also been added, though they are uncommented. That's all.
