Help text

Most LCDs use a single address bit to differentiate line 0 and line 1. Since some of them need to be able to address 40 chars with the lower bits, they often use the immediately superior power of 2, which is 64, to address the next line.

If you don't know what your LCD uses, in doubt let 16 here for a 2x16, and 64 here for a 2x40.
