Hello Myke et all,

> I'll be interested in hearing what happens with your experiment.

    I've done a quick test with a 2x16 LCD. The one I've used (probably all
44780 based will work same way) have a character RAM of 80 bytes:

           this is shown    this isn't shown
           ---------------- ------------------------
    Line1: 1234567890123456 789012345678901234567890
    Line2: 1234567890123456 789012345678901234567890

    If you keep sending LCD_Right commands, the cursor will walk
left-to-right until the end of the line and then roll to the first character
of the other line. LCD_Left commands work accordingly.

    Best regards,

    Brusque
