Summary: NEW PORT: lcdproc
Product: Ports & Packages Reporter: dwhite <dwhite>
Component: Individual Port(s)Assignee: Doug White <dwhite>
Status: Closed FIXED    
Severity: Affects Only Me    
Priority: Normal    
Version: Latest   
Hardware: Any   
OS: Any   

Description dwhite 1998-09-10 01:30:00 UTC 
I hereby submit a port of 'lcdproc', a driver program for the 
Matrix Orbital Serial LCD Displays.  

Fetch http://www.freebsd.org/~dwhite/lcdproc-0.3.4.tar.gz for the port.

lcdproc runs a 'top' like display on the units, which connect easily to any PC with a serial port (or I2C bus for those of you who like I2C).  Information on the devices can be found at http://www.matrix-orbital.com/.

You can buy the units from LinuxCentral at http://www.linuxcentral.com/.
The LCDProc homepage is http://lcdproc.omnipotent.net/.

Since this is my first port submission I'll let someone else take a look
at it and make sure I (and portlint) didn't miss anything.  Yes, the patches are ugly hacks, I know. :)

I will submit the patches back to the author shortly.

In case anyone discovers this, this port needs to be rebuilt, so hold off
on working with this until I let you know.

I uploaded a revised version, so we can finish this up.  

I'd like someone to at least review my work; this is my first port, fairly
simple but stranger things have happened.

I can commit this myself if you'd prefer.

Thanks!

There's a new version of this, I'll just do it from scratch.
