The code I wrote also has some fun text tweaks like scrolling and paging (horizontal and vertical respectively).

The lcd 117 kit I used is from either paul anderson or modern device. The parallel way of connecting it is documented on the arduino playground. It uses a lot of wires, but it is cheaper. As far as i know the code i wrote would have to be modified if you go the parallell route. Good luck! hi john, you can either use the parallel way of connecting it, or buy a serial lcd controller.
