Trouble with Lcdout

Hi,
I have a keypad and an LCD.
My keypad's scanning rutine returns a key (0 to 9).
I'd like to display each digit (as I press the key on the keypad) next to the previous one.

For example:
After pressing digit 3 the LCD will read: 3
Then I press digit 6, the LCD now reads 36
then I press digit 4, the LCD now reads 364 and so on


For some reason I can't do that. I've only been able to display one digit at a time by clearing the display first:

Code:

---

Lcdout $FE, 1, #key

---

but I really want to show them together as they're being pressed.

Please help

You've done pretty much OK... just rearrange things a little...

Code:

---

Start:
        LCDOut $FE,1
KeyLoop:
        Gosub GetKey
        LCDOut #key
        Goto KeyLoop

---

Thanks Melanie.

I didn't know that you could skip the "$FE" command when sending data using Lcdout.

BTW, do you have a complete list of LCD commands for use with Lcdout? (I only have the ones from PBP manual and Google couldn't help me).

Tom

all the special command to use with LCDOUT are in the PBP manual.

$fe,1 clear display
$fe,$c0 jump to 2nd line
etc

so LCDOUT $FE,1," hello "

will clear the display an write hello

LCDOUT $FE,1,"line 1",$FE,$C0,"line 2"

will clear the display and write line 1 on the first line, line 2 on the second line of your LCD.
