Wiring for HD44780

Well, since i haven't found one on google, i imagine they don't exist outside of my head

I was thinking something along the lines of, a PP cable that connects to a PCB (http://rsk.imageg.net/graphics/produ...949331w345.jpg) and there would be a row of pins that are all bridged to ports 1-25 and you could just run some wires out of those pins to do, whatever it is that you needed.

But thats just the first way to wire it that popped in my head, i'd love to hear how others have done.

Anyone? I'm not asking for a HOWTO on building the above rig, just any info on how YOU wired up your LCD device? I'm not certain how little is ever documented in every wiring scheme how they actually wired the thing...

Is it the case that most people usualy get a male to female adapter, soder a wire to each pin and do all the wiring that way? I'm really open to any advice.

Just FYI, i found a really good writeup on Instructables on how to get started
