It's rather simple: LCDproc controls the LCD as usual, with a slightly 
different wiring. Look into "LCDproc-$version/docu/README" and there "8-bit 
extended. In this doc are some tools mentioned (lcdtime, portato), which are 
switching 8 LEDs over a 74LS373 chip. These tools have "have hard wired" 
functions, so I looked into portata source and wrote a new tool, which simply 
turns LEDs "on" and "off". This tool and LCDproc are running absolutley 
independently. You only have to tweak the wiring of your LCD and built the 
rest of the circuit....is documented in "lcdtime/lcd.ps".

I'm still working on it. Friday or saturday I will have finished my 
experiments and certainly I will report the results to the ML! Okay???

Bye
Stefan
