Having looked at the referenced code listing and if the OP wants to claim it
as his original then I would doubt his professionalism. I have seen school-
kids produce better.

They usually come from China or Spain or Russia.

But look dont' despair, the opposite is also happening.
We Western countries use thei rimmigrant brains while paying them LESS, e.g.
40% of Microsoft's best preoducts were coded by non-US born engineers.

So they stole your work. But many US comnpanies use THEIR work. It flows
in both directions.

Try using "Keeloq" - a free tool for Microchip microcontrollers, in case
you're writing for Microchip, or a similar encryptor.

I know it feels very very bad to sit & kill your health & eyes in front of a
computer to write software, so some punk would steal it.

Don't publish source code anymore, LOCK your chips with Keeloq or similar.

I could not agree more as it could be argued that his code is VERY
similar to any number of other pieces of 4 bit parallel mode EXAMPLE
routines used to demo any number of HD44780 lookalike LCD displays.
I have seen similar code examples on many datasheets/application notes.

The code employs delay loops, not timers or other methods to make it
useable in many real world applications.

Code would need changing for any format of display different to
16 x 2 and possibly special character sets.

Keeloq is a rolling-code encryption system designed to prevent replay
attacks from keyfob type remote controls. It is not designed for
protecting code contents. It has also been broken.

Who cares about your trivial junk. Only idiots like you.
