+
+ Esplora TFT Temperature Display
+ 
+ This example for the Arduino TFT screen is for use
+ with an Arduino Esplora.
+ 
+ This example reads the temperature of the Esplora's
+ on board thermisistor and displays it on an attached
+ LCD screen, updating every second.
+ 
+ This example code is in the public domain.
