    Are Serial GLCD's a viable option when you want to sell lots of kit.

    What about the need odd size units how do you cater for them?

    IMHO its far cheaper to find a compiler that supports GLCD's or at least has access to routines that can use them.

    So..... is that your answer to every one?

    If some one makes a valid suggestion that in circumstances were the compiler does not suit the application its actually more economical to use another one for that job.

    You then tell them to get lost?

    don't worry with Alain, must be one of his bad days

    It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
    There's no problem, only learning opportunities.

    Definitly YES !!!

    IF product doesn't suit your OWN requirements ... no use to loose your time. if " Time is money " for you ...

    You want what PBP doesn't offer you ... why heavily insist ???

    Lots of people have asked the same question as you ... in the right Forum section. One more may decide Melabs to add GLCD to the libraries ...

    Who knows ???

    Now one thing is sure ... PBP allows you to create your own driver ... without too many pain !!!

    This is not PicBasicPro code, but if you look through it, you will find exactly what you are looking for.
