-if you just use one max7219 >>> use the funktion maxSingle to controll the little guy ---maxSingle(register (1-8), collum (0-255))

-if you useing more then one max7219 and they all should do the same >>> use the funktion maxAll ---maxAll(register (1-8), collum (0-255))

-if you useing more then one max7219 and just want to change some thing at one little guy >>> use the funktion maxOne ---maxOne(Max you wane controll (1== the first one), register (1-8), collum (0-255))

/* take care with the initiation you have to send every part to every max7219 and then upload it. so for example if you have 5 max7219, you have to send the scanLimit 5 times befor you load it, other wise not every max7219 will get the shit. maxInUse is keeping track of this, just tell him how many max7219 you are uesing
