Question: Can library be used for more than one indicator PINs ? #3

This is not a bug report but a query to see if the library could be used "as-is" to run up LED indicator patterns on multiple PINs ? From the README description it looks like it works for only one LED indicator.

Also, I understand that this depends on SandTimer library. However, I need to use the SoftTimer library for other things s.a. key-debounce etc. Can SandTimer and SoftTimer coexist ?

It's designed for single pin. However, you can create multiple instances of Strober, where each one is responsible for a single pin.

Yes. You can also edit the library in a couple of places to make it use SoftTimer (this should be relatively easy)
