Rotary Encoder plugin module?

Has anybody by any chance written a rotary encoder plugin module for Oshonsoft?

Something like two buttons, one for up, one for down (or A & B if you like) that will switch two inputs in the right sequences to emulate said device.

I know nothing about writing plug-ins for Oshonsoft otherwise I would give it a go myself.
 
I saw that one and it only relates to the actual Basic code for an encoder in a program, I'm looking for a plug-in for the sim.

I can make the sim do what I want by manually switching the inputs, but I keep forgetting which way I switch them for a given CW or CCW direction change, hence a little plug-in where I only have push qone button to trigger one or the other switch changes would make it somewhat easier to do.

Hi A,
I have rotary encoders in Oshonsoft.
I use PICs such as 18F2431 and 18F4431 which have QEI encoders built in.
If you are wishing to write the CODE yourself, then I can't really help.
you need to understand quadrature and how the switching works. quadrature automatically works forwards and backwards, depending on the quadrature sequence.
Cheers, Camerart
