problems with TrinketKeyboard.print & TrinketKidCombo.print

[ElectricRCAircraftGuy]

In the code below, notice these lines:

  //test prints
  uint8_t buttonLEDstate = TrinketKeyboard.getLEDstate();
  TrinketKeyboard.print(buttonLEDstate,BIN); TrinketKeyboard.print(", "); TrinketKeyboard.println(buttonLEDstate);
  TrinketKeyboard.print("test"); TrinketKeyboard.print(", "); TrinketKeyboard.println(buttonLEDstate);
  TrinketKeyboard.println();

The buttonLEDstate only prints the first time. The subsequent 2 attempts at printing it do not work. There is an issue with the print and println commands. It is present with the TrinketHidCombo library too. Here is the output:

0, 
test, 

0, 
test, 

0, 
test, 

0, 
test, 

0, 
test, 

Here's the full code sample:

Also, TrinketHidCombo.getLEDstate() is broken, but it works fine for the TrinketKeyboard library. See issue here: #8

[ElectricRCAircraftGuy]

TrinketHidCombo.print and TrinketHidCombo.println are still broken.

[ElectricRCAircraftGuy]

Bump. TrinketHidCombo.print and TrinketHidCombo.println are still broken.

cancel that. They seem to be ok. It's a factor of having the device type into Notepad++, which has built-in autocomplete. The autocomplete throws it off. My bad. I think this issue can be closed.
