Has anyone interfaced Solarbotics Wheel Encoders and Solarbotics GM8 Motors with an Arduino?
Here is the doc for the wheel encoders:

I'm kinda of unsure how to setup the encoders in my code to measure distance traveled. If anyone
has any arduino code with comments it would greatly help me out. ;D

You can look through my custom Arduino powered motor controller code here. I don't remember how well I commented it, but it does use encoders to record distance traveled.
