The library compiles, but several instances of this warning are output to the console:

It seems like most of these will just need converted to "const char *" pointers.

I'm going to copy this issue over to the https://github.com/valerionew/ht1621-7-seg fork which has more features and is more recently updated - I'll submit a pull request to fix it there. I'll still leave this one open in case someone wants to fix this in the original repo.
