Distributing .hex files?

[bigjosh]

The blinklib code is automatically recompiled from source by the Arduino IDE, so you should not need to mess with hex files to get this working.

Here is an article I just wrote showing probably the easiest way customize the blinklib code for your project…

HOWTO: How to customize `blinklib` (advanced)

Let’s say you love blinklib, but just wish that it did one thing differently. You can actually customize blinklib to suit your needs! For this example, we are are going to pretend that you have created a game that is played on the ceiling and so you want the buttonDown() function to return true normally and false when the button is pressed (the opposite of the normal behavior). Open the ButtonPress example program in the Arduino IDE [image] “Save as…” it to something like ButtonPressOver…

If you are going to diverge significantly from the programming model or semantics, then you’d probably want to fork blinklib and make your own package.
