Hi, I've been trying to use the VFD on top of medion's md 8800 desktop, LCD proc, a program for LINUX, works with this LCD, but since I use my PC a lot for gaming and am used to word, I would like to use the VFD in Windows.

here you can find some info and escape codes for it; http://www.martinm-76.dk/md8800/LCD/

I've tried to use lisvfd plugin, but the information all flashes by unreadable.

The VFD has some extra icons at the bottom, they probebly will work differently than just text strings, so they will probebly not be capable to be adjusted with LCD smartie with just a plugin, but you could give it a try...

If someone could tell me how I would like to build the plugin myself, but I'm not much of a programmer...
