Does anyone have an example of using a HD44780 LCD with the PROstart board? I prefer to code in C but basic would be OK.
I would like to use a 595 shift register to save pins for other uses.
I tried to port the Arduino LCD library with a 595 shift register but the compile size is very large. Any tips or suggestions?
