 		 #173762 - A little whitespace goes a long way
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Which is easier to read:

this:
Save This Code
strcpy(str_buffer,dec2ascii(read_hour())); //read_hour() returns 12 in dec (tested)
strcat(str_buffer,":"); 
strcat(str_buffer,dec2ascii(read_min()));  //dec2ascii() returns ptr to "34"
strcat(str_buffer,":");
strcat(str_buffer,dec2ascii(read_sec()));
LCD_sendstring(str_buffer);
 


Or this:
Save This Code
strcpy( str_buffer, dec2ascii( read_hour() ) ); //read_hour() returns 12 in dec (tested)
strcat( str_buffer, ":"                      ); 
strcat( str_buffer, dec2ascii( read_min()  ) ); //dec2ascii() returns ptr to "34"
strcat( str_buffer, ":"                      );
strcat( str_buffer, dec2ascii( read_sec()  ) );

LCD_sendstring( str_buffer );
