 <p><i>2002-01-07</i>:
 <a href="mail/archive/rockbox-archive-2002-01/0026.shtml">Jukebox LCD code</a>.
 I have written a small test program that scrolls some text on the display.
 You need
 <a href="mail/archive/rockbox-archive-2002-01/att-0026/01-archos.mod.gz">this file</a>
 for units with ROM earlier than 4.50 and
 <a href="mail/archive/rockbox-archive-2002-01/att-0050/02-archos.mod.gz">this file</a>
 for all others. (The files are gzipped, you need to unzip them before they will work.)

 <p><i>2001-12-13</i>: First program
 <a href="mail/archive/rockbox-archive-2001-12/0070.shtml">released</a>!
