/* This is a hack of Simon Ford's direct-driven TextLCD code.
* It should be refactored to extract a common superclass
* but my C++ isn't yet good enough :) 
*
* The code assumes the following connections between the PCF8574
* and the LCD
* 
* nc  - D0
* nc  - D1
* nc  - D2
* nc  - D3
* P0  - D4
* P1  - D5
* P2  - D6
* P3  - D7
* P4  - E
* P5  - nc
* P6  - nc
* P7  - RS
* gnd - R/W
*
* D0-3 of the LCD are not connected because we work in 4-bit mode
* R/W is hardwired to gound, as we only ever write to the LCD
* A0-2 on the PCF8574 can be set in any combination; you will need to modify
* the I2C address in the I2CTextLCD constructor.
* Remember that the mbed uses 8-bit addresses, which should be
* in the range 0x40-0x4E for the PCF8574
