Error compiling

Sketch compiles fine on Arduino 1.0.5

Use this patch: jraymakers@e111718. You need to add the "const" to that file.

Great! Thank you! This made my life much easier. Now everything works and it's a lot of fun, hacking the matrix!

This bug causes a fatal error in the Adafruit 16x24 LED Matrix tutorial, and #9 fixes it. Can a project maintainer review the PR? 😄
