controlling a LCD (HD44780)

[dakky]

Hello

I hope this is the right place to ask:
Gordons wiring_pi implementation does support the use of a hd44780 display ( https://projects.drogon.net/raspberry-pi/wiringpi/lcd-library/ )
Is it poossible to use it with this gem too? I have written a little ruby daemon, and it would be awesome to access the display directly without calling an external phyton script or something like that.

Greetings
Dakky
