    and @darkn1883r, it doesnt convert binary to just a decimal, but a hexidecimal

    *update*: added an erase key. Unreliable and slow though.

    This is really cool. It seems to me this actually emulates current LCD screens (one current goes up, the other goes right, where they both meet a light gets switched)

    @program: the weird blue shapes are actually binary. They are part of the binary to decimal converter that interprets the code sent by the wifi on each letter to choose the rowof inwr that corresponds to the chosen letter.

    program: I think aray reads the filt in patterns that make words. Go look uo dom2mom's electronics tutorial.
