I'm quite sure that the width of your widget is too small. In this case
the text widget prints a number of asterisks to let the user know that
there's an overflow.

But there's another way to test plugins: just use the 'interactive mode'
of lcd4linux: run it with '-i' (or '-ii' to enter interactive mode
before the display gets initialized), and enter any expressions at the
prompt.


HTH, Michael
