4.3" LCD displays in portrait mode

I have Raymans PSB with a 4.3" lcd. Has anyone tried to use the display in portrait mode instead of landscape? I was thinking of a project that uses a text display and was wondering if there exists any code to do so or if it's even possible and what's involved if it is possible.

Thanks.
Don

    Ok. Thanks. I'll see if I can make it work with Rayman's demos. I tried using Ariba's demo code on the PSB but it doesn't do anything.

    Check the pin definition in the driver.
    If i remember correctly there is a pin to change.
    out of memory in one driver back light and enable are the same pin, in the other they are separated.

    Don,

    If you get Ariba's code to work on one of Rayman's 4.3" displays, I hope you'll let us know.

    I have several of Rayman's 4.3" displays. It would be nice to have a portrait mode option.
