LCD AppMod HELP

I need help with the LCD AppMod.

Can somebody make me a source code that monitors each button and goes to a separate subroutine for a button that is pressed? Tell it to do nothing if two buttons are pressed at the same time.

I want the subroutines to be:

Button1
Button2
Button3
Button4

Button 1 is the leftmost button and button 4 is the rightmost button.

I do want to use the LCD...

Thanks

    I forgot to mention- I'd like it in PBASIC 2.5 for the BS2

    What help do you need? Writing you a program isn't help, it's work.

    Did you try the demo code in the PDF Franklin linked to? It should give you what you need to read the buttons and then go to a subroutine or at least be able to ask more specific questions. I·doubt that·anyone is just going to write the program for you.

    WAIT!!! Thanks to the source code for Crustcrawler Robotics' Hexcrawler, I have figured out how to do it where it does an IF...THEN statement!!! 
    
' Special thanks to Crust Crawler Robotics for allowing free access to it's Hex Crawler manual to FINALLY figure this out! :)
DO
  GOSUB LCD_Get_Buttons                         ' Go check for buttons pressed
  IF btnA = 1 THEN                              ' If BtnA (leftmost button) is pressed, then...
    HIGH 13                                     ' Turn on a green LED on P13
  ENDIF
LOOP


    Here is the subroutine

    LCD_Get_Buttons:
  LcdDirs = %0000                               ' make LCD bus inputs
  buttons = %1111                               ' assume all pressed
  FOR scan = 1 TO 10
    buttons = buttons & LcdBusIn                ' make sure button held
    PAUSE 5                                     ' debounce 10 x 5 ms
  NEXT
  LcdDirs = %1111                               ' return bus to outputs
  RETURN
