Hi Dick, You mean 1x4 instead of 4x1 ? That was accidental. Is there any convention? >From what I see, both are used on the Internet.
Also, I asked a question yesterday on the lib-committers mailing list but haven't got any response yet. Maybe one of you here can help. I was also looking into adding a component library, but I noticed it does not get installed when running "make install", if I put the .lib file is along all the others in the library folder. What's missing here?
