I used Gimp. It's easier.

I think so. That's the way it is on the nspire, for what it's worth. It's a matrix of keys, so you don't have 50+ IO pins, just 8-16.

well, you might try the keypad then. Lots of I/O there.

The LCD connector doesn't connect directly to the z80. It goes through driver chips and whatnot.
If you just want to interface with stuff externally your best bet would be the link port, coupled with an I/O expander. It wouldn't be fast, but it would at least not involve ridiculous amounts of soldering on your 83+ PCB 291

Think that's cool? Check this one out.

looks like you're running more than a few mods. Do any of those alter the game's physics?

I don't have any fancy graphics, but when I was at university I got 93 DL/70 UL. Now I get 3.1 DL / 0.5 UL

That's why I ordered a breakout board for the LCD.

Was there something wrong with using a motor+knex chain system for the lift?

I'm fairly sure they decided to just stick with the MCP and Bukkit. The devs of those projects get releases early, and they release simultaneously with minecraft updates.

Well, with an ARM chip you might as well just load something like eLua onto the chip.
Would anyone be terribly offended if I dedicated all the analog input option pins to other things? It's the only port on the chip that doesn't have other stuff I want to use for its own purpose (like UART and SPI) You could still have analog input through the coprocessor chip, though. It wouldn't be as fast, and would be bottle-necked by audio processes, but it would be available if anyone DID need it. 298

There will, at the very least, be a pin header. 0.1" spacing, so it should be easy enough to attach to.

Alexis, this is a project I'm building. I only just got the parts, so there's not much to look at for the moment.

zigzagjoe, the SD interface has an SPI mode that's directly supported. It is exactly the same as what an SPI flash chip would do. sdfatlib only applies if you use a FAT filesystem, and do software SPI.
