+### Update for alternatative wiring pattern
+Based on this fantastic work I added an alternative wiring pattern.
+For original you have to use a long wire to connect DO - DI from first line to the next line.
+
+I wired my clock in meander style. So the first LED in second line is in the right.
+With this problem every second line was inverted and showed the wrong letter.
+
+I added a switch in usermod called "meander wiring?" to enable/disable alternativ wiring pattern.
