GOOGLE not helping.
Are there any tutorials on writing screens in perl for lcdproc?
Or can someone make me a perl client that scrolls through several different text screens.

Try using this pm.

http://search.cpan.org/~jcmuller/IO-LCD ... LCDproc.pm

It's not a tutorial, but it's a start.

Code: Select all

IO::LCDproc::Client not loaded. perhaps you for got to load IO::LCDproc::Client

That error normally shows up when the "use IO::LCDproc;" line is missing. Could be other things though but I'm not sure what else.

I just started looking through the source code for lcdproc. There's some perl examples in the lcdproc-0.4.5/clients/examples folder to get you started.

These work better than the PM I gave you earlier because they point out that you should clear the buffer after every call to the LCDd server. Apparently the PM doesn't do that because it kept crashing on me when I was trying to make a simple clock.
