Sending text to GLCD using BV4612 interface

I seem to be going through these serial / i2c GLCD adapters like hot cakes.. anyway I took delivery of the up to date version and I've hit a problem regarding some syntax and using it with pbp.

The manual (http://www.byvac.co.uk/downloads/dat...0DataSheet.pdf) has a command for positioning the cursor at a given row / column when a font has been selected.

Code:

---

esc[<row>;<col>H Y Move cursor to line and column

---

Quote:

---

Moves cursor to specified line and character position. The row and column values are effected by the
current font. For the standard font the row value will be between 0 & 7 and the column between 0
and about 31. Zero is the top left and so esc[0;0H will move the cursor to the home position. Values
out of range will be ignored.

---

The thing is the semi-colon is interpreted by pbp (MCS ?) as a comment and thus half the information for the column is ignored.... any ideas on how to get round this ?

You would actually send the following if using Serout2.
For Row 4 and Column 20
Serout2 pin, mode, [$1b, "[4;20H"]

Or you can do it all in hex.
Serout2 pin, mode, [$1b, $5b, $34, $3b, $32, $37, $48]

The ; is enclosed in quotation marks, so PBP will not treat it as a comment.

show us the line you trying to send
I was thinking
Serout2 pin, mode, [27, 91,#row,59, #col, 72]
