It is relatively easy to do using the 'segments' function.

Have an array for the characters you need - not all characters are possible but a fair few are so use ASCII mapping (' ' (space) is 32, 'A' 65 etc) - and I would offset the index (use .c - 32 where .c is the character) as 0..31 are not 'printable'

Then you have .segments = char_set[.c -32] ChatGPT (or alternative) will generate the lookup table for you :-)
