[TriEmbed] decent nRF24L01+ library code out there?

[Pete Soper]

Hi Terry,
   Thanks for the pointers.

    Unfortunately how-tos and the like have not been the limiting factor 
and the Maniacbug library is the first one I tried. It's the one that 
nearly shocked my shorts off when it reported received packets when my 
other radio was not powered up and I confirmed there was NOTHING 
transmitting in that part of the 2.4ghz. Before this is done I'll be 
submitting patches for these libraries so they can discriminate the most 
basic fault conditions. Surely this is critically important to 
beginners. It's got to be a worse case screwup to have code so totally 
bogus that it can't tell the difference between a nonfunctional 
interface or a perfect lack of communication and expected communication.
   I've been looking at the Nordic Semi code that can be downloaded. 
Ugly proprietary notices and not much info, but maybe they won't sue me 
if I look at their code and datasheet as I write my own library code.

Regards,
Pete
