Display API

This library's purpose is to ease creation of nodes with one or more displays on sides. For example, signs and clocks. Display can be dynamic and/or different for each node instance.

Limitations: This lib uses entities to draw display. This means display has to be vertical (and "upside up") on Minetest before version 5.0. This restriction can be set in settings.

Settings: display_rotation_restriction should be set to false if using Minetest 5.0 and above, true otherwise.

API: See API.md document please.

For more information, see the forum topic at the Minetest forums.
