LED Rhythm and duration

It would be nice to have the ability to set a blink rhythm for the LED.

For example. You can set the duration by milliseconds, then enter something like 10100010
If duration is 5ms, then the LED would blink L
on for 5ms
off for 5ms
on for 5ms
off for 15ms
on for 1ms.
(Not adding a 0 at the end would leave the LED on.)

This could adapt to TWINE 2 where perhaps there would be a multi-color LED, so G0R0B could be used

    I'd second that; having the user given the ability to set their tech ability level, and thus their ability to dig deeper into the interface. If Twine takes off, this would allow for a cottage industry of "Twine Tuners" helping people to tailor their Twine for their needs.

    This kind of thing is all very well for those of us who are techies, and think techie. But, given the Twine objective, I don't think grandma would handle this.

    I think twine does a great job of having a simple option set for your grandma, with the more advanced "options pane" for us techies. For me, I'd love to see basic options of:
    Steady light for x seconds
    Or
    blink x number of times.

    With the advanced options allowing to set the parameters of the light such as Ms on and Ms off per flash.

    any device should have broad capabilities not just for grandma.
