I can only find the post from Feb 22th, which includes this glitch.

Yeah I know about that "thing". It makes my eyes bleed, though.

Yeah after looking at things it seems best to have a separate module. I already started to put the boilerplate code together and I'm currently putting the various device specific bits in place. -- Greetings, Michael. PGP encryption is encouraged / 908D8B0E
