Currently i am creating a cinima on minecraft but was finding it hard using rednet to control the screen. So i am suggesting cables to connect computer hardware to the computer. This would make it a lot eaiser for many of minecrafters computercraft projects

Read this topic:

There I have explained Liraal's program, which allows you to receive lua code from another computer, and control it directly.

Setup
Computer 1 with a monitor attached, and the program running

Computer 2 does this:
commandstring = 'peripheral.call("right","write","Hello World!")'
rednet.send(computer1,computerstring)

(assuming you already rednet.open() 'ed the modems)
