I've just created and published a library that implements the TextDisplay interface for Serial LCDs (currently just 2x16)  controlled by the HD44780 as made by Sparkfun

http://mbed.org/users/giryan/programs/TextLCD_Serial/latest

When I try to import it into one of my projects I get an error "ERROR - Could not import from non-mbed URL: http://mbed.org/users/simon/programs" (and the rest of the error message is not visible as it goes further than the dialog)

Hi Matthew,

Thanks for the report; that's a bug and i've ticketed it. We're going to put up a new version of the compiler imminently with much better support for generating and using libraries, so we'll make sure this is fixed as part of that. It should give a much better workflow for creating libraries, so it'd be great if you could test it when ready.

Thanks again,

Simon
