Thank you Wildbill.
I will remember for the future and not make that mistake again
Promise
The only display with buttons I found only is a 2 row display, which is not enough.
I would need at least 3, better 4 rows,
plus 4, better 6 or 7 buttons (or a touchscreen)
I've managed to display information on the Nokis display. However it is much too small to use for the final device.
I was able to display simple text, however I was not able to display a variable on the display. I always get errors.

I looked at "char" and "Itoa" commands, also Lcd.Print... but nothing I've tried so far worked.
Also notice that in the first line, I moved the "ms" only 57 rows over, while it's 65 on the others?
That's the only way I could align them.
