[lcd4linux] StarTip

[Scott S. <sis...@gm...>]

Hey, guys,

I just wanted to say thanks for LCD4Linux. It's going to be turned into a
World of Warcraft addon. :) Actually some libraries so anyone can embed the
lcd4linux-esque displays in their own addons, configurable with basic lua
tables. I want this to be useful for endgame, so you can see stats on a boss
fight, or even in pvp I imagine. This is totally going to rock. :) It's sort
of experimental at the moment because I'm not sure if WoW's going to be able
to handle the addon. I figure since embedded systems could do it, then WoW
can likely as well. It's not that heavy, and I know several ways already how
to get it optimized.

I'm out,
Scott

Oh and I also used the layering idea on a single pixel -- the entire screen.
The addon's name is AuraAlarm. It alerts you to buffs and debuffs by
flashing the screen or whatever. You can prioritize an alarm by setting
opacity to 255. That part still needs work, but this tooltip addon got to
going. Pretty cool huh? Can't do the layering on the tooltips though. They
have to be character displays. I'm going the whole nine yards. Evaluator
wraps lua's loadstring. The configuration's almost exactly the same, except
it's done in lua tables. Properties too. Everything that went into
LCDControl. Plus the extras I added to LCDControl. These little tooltips are
going to be highly configurable just like LCD4LInux. You just tell it some
information like size and a few handlers, and viola an addon author can
incorporate the same ideas in their own addons. Think you'll get some
customers? :) Any of you play WoW?

Well, I say "size and a few handlers" but you also provide it the
configuration. ;) Typing too fast there. lol

Re: [lcd4linux] (no subject)

Dear developers:

I've tried with picoLCD 2x20 with not very good results in the project I
am working in, so I have bought a new
LCD module picoLCD Graphic USB 256x64 with better results. This display
has 5 buttons that lcd4linux reads right.

The problem is that I need to give functionalities to these buttons and
have tried to read the whole wiki and using the 
help and the plugins. I have tried to give a button the function of
poweroff using the exec plugin, and to other the 
function to switch on and off the backlight with the command.

LCD::backlight(0)
LCD::backlight(1)

I have tried to use the command with evaluator as

expression
button_action=nkey==2?LCD::backlight(0):button_action;nkey==2?1:0

But after killing and restarting lcd4linux begins to run and to send
everything to the display until it comes to this line
and then exits.

My version is: Version 0.10.2-SVN-796 (the one that comes bundled with
picolcd)

Can you please help me to make it work!

Thank you

Yago Fernandez Hansen


This is the important part of my configuration.
