uh-oh.... funny how time flies :-)

There is sort of a "generic keypad handling layer", but no real "client"
now. One idea was to pass the keypresses to the linux input layer, but
this is implemented in ony driver only, IIRC.

LCD4Linux always supported external LED's as "GPO's" (General Purpose
Output).
The includ display is controlled via serdisplib, but serdisplib doesn't
support GPO's (at least it didn't at the time of writing the includ
driver). I remember talking with Wolfgang about this stuff, he was
planning to add stuff like that.
Wolfgang, any news on that topic?
bye, Michael
