	I have seen a data sheet sometime in the last month that did what I
	think you want.  It could either display a bargraph (all LEDs
	up to value on) or just a single LED for the value.  It even provided
	for the cascading of these chips appropriately.  Unfortunately, I
	can't seem to find the data sheet for it now.  I'll keep looking.

	As a related question, are there any 4 bit -> 7-segment LED
	decoder/driver chips that represent the 4 bits in Hexadecimal
	rather than BCD with garbage for the top 6 values?
