Open a library to better understand how it works

How to I open an H file, a library to see if it helps me understand how it works. I'm trying to figure out how to use the AnalogButtons library.

2

Go to your Arduino installation directory, then look for for the .cpp or .c file of the library you're interested in.

For generic arduino analogue stuff, look for "wiring_analog.c"

3

First, try the documentation. If it doesn't help, H files can be opened with wordpad etc. It can be a bit difficult to read without colored words, so a program like Qt Creator or Eclipse would be better.

That's on how to MAKE a library. But for someone who doesn't at all knows anything about C++ libraries it can be interesting.
