Is there a serial LCD library that works with the Shieldbuddy without a rewrite? My project was originally designed for an Arduino Mega clone and the sketch it was running made heavy use of the SerLCD lib. Since this relies on functions in the ATMEGA library (and SoftwareSerial, which also doesn't work), it obviously won't work with the Infineon chip the ShieldBuddy sports as-is.
I could simply write to the Serial0 port, as I did earlier while testing, but that results in pulsing characters on the screen and strange behavior on the part of the cursor, which just looks awful. Plus, I had an timed auto-dim feature in my project.
Any ideas? I'd like to see if there's something already written before I go and attempt a full-scale rewrite of a library.
