I committed the patch to CVS.
It will be in tonight's / tomorrow's nightly tar ball available from
http://lcdproc.sourceforge.net/nightly/lcdproc-CVS-current.tar.gz
Please test !
I had to adapt the patch a bit since there have been changes in this area
since 0.5.1. Please always use current CVS code when sending in patches.
It makes the maintainer's life easier.
Just to satisfy my curiosity: Do you by chance have an image
of the new 6-char bignums in action?
Thanks for your contrribution
Peter
