lcd scrolling text and infinite loop setup

[system]

1. yes if you put an infinite loop inside the setup function it would never exit the loop and in a sense be like the void loop method.

2. I use the sparkfun serial lcd and the code is quite simple to make it loop but it's part of the sparkfunSerLcd library. Not familiar with anything else.

Might give it a download and pick through the code for some ideas though.
