So I chose "display", as they are additional small displays (LCD or not). However, people thought it was a very common name. Then I chose "LCD Display". Such name is more expressive (it is "a Display, LCD type") and doesn't makes trouble with new lcd screens, or the "lcd" drivers, or... I don't care really about the name with or without "double d". Can someone else give his/her opinion about this?
