/* initialization sequence:
53
The display can receive data in 4-bit or 8-bit mode. We are using 4-bit mode,
54
sending 4 bits at a time, with only the upper four bits connected.
55
First, we send 8'H3x three times to get into 8-bit mode. Then 8'H2x to get
56
into 4-bit mode. The remaining numbers are 8-bit pairs:
57
8'H28: multi-line mode (the first needs a long delay)
58
8'H01: reset (needs long delay)
59
8'H0C: display on, no cursor, no blink
60
//8'H06 forward direction
