But would be cool to have a function to directly jump to the next line in owfs. writing >60 characters always takes some time... > Has anyone been able to use the buttons in the hobby-boards design?

I tried that... you can write 0 to PIO.[0-2] to put your 5V on it... so you can have blinkenlights with some LEDs... unfortunately you write some trash characters to the LCD... so the cursor should be in a non visible area... Now, when PIO.x is high you can use sensed.[0-2], this reads 1 when the switch isn't on and 0 when connected to ground. You should use the uncached-tree for this. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more? Need to support web services, security?
