Thanks for your interest in adding new drivers to LCDProc.

I have had a qucik glance at the code, which made me not integrate 
it into LCDproc CVS in its current state.

Here's why:
* the code is written for the driver API of LCDproc v0.4.x
  This version of LCDproc is un-maintained since a long tine.
  Please have a look at
    http://lcdproc.sourceforge.net/docs/current-dev.html#driver-api
  to learn about the cnew driver API.
* It completely lacks documentation. Please see
    http://lcdproc.sourceforge.net/docs/current-dev.html#add-your-driver
  and especially  
    http://lcdproc.sourceforge.net/docs/current-dev.html#documentation
  to find out what is required.

Thanks in advance
Peter
