I'm building a bit more of interface which handles button presses and such |

(forgot your root password?). The framework is built using Perl, but the actual |
9 |
calls to set LCD text and query button status are handled via some hacked up |

code I found on Sun's Cobalt dev FTP. I've created an ebuild for it; whether or |
11 |
not the ebuild was done well is not important at this point, just need something |
12 |
that works. |

If anything wants lower level access, well, have fun :-) The point here is to |
15 |
make something that is easily extensible. I don't want to write something that |
16 |
requires someone to know C, or heaven forbid Python, to extend. You know what I |
17 |
mean? |
