Hi Joe, I'm new here but have looked at your videos. I'm very impressed with what you've done! Great job. I used to do programming on the old Tandy color computer at the OS level. I really enjoyed the challenge of creating routines with limited resources. One program that "maybe" someone here saw and used was called C-3pages (desktop publishing). anyway, I saw a video on the Parallax board of education (8 cores) and was very interested. Enough to buy one. What I'm looking to do is make this really cool Christmas display this year using the boe. I've seen references of plugins for HLS and would like to create a plugin to use the propeller to create a great display. I plan on using a high speed serial connection (usb). I'm not sure where to start but first thoughts are to have HLS use the serial port and use a header record to tell the prop what string of rgb lights to talk to (using ws2812 and ws2811 strips, so need to be able to change the RGB patterns depending on what is being used). It's early in the year but feel like I'm running out of time. Any help is appreciated. thanks
