WndLpt

WndLpt is a program designed to regularly set a combination of LPT port digital output signals in accordance with the script commands.
Supported methods: set, clear, invert state of several pins, shift left/right, waiting for specified time interval; cycles, subprograms.
This is useful for automatic control LEDs, relays or other devices directly connected to the LPT port.
Creation of a script is extremely simple, clear and logical.
