* Function Name: putrsXLCD
* Return Value: void
* Parameters: buffer: pointer to string
* Description: This routine writes a string of bytes to the
* Hitachi HD44780 LCD controller. The user
* must check to see if the LCD controller is
* busy before calling this routine. The data
* is written to the character generator RAM or
* the display data RAM depending on what the
* previous SetxxRamAddr routine was called.

* Description: his routine configures the LCD. Based on
* the Hitachi HD44780 LCD controller. The
* routine will configure the I/O pins of the
* microcontroller, setup the LCD for 4- or
* 8-bit mode and clear the display. The user
* must provide three delay routines:
* DelayFor18TCY() provides a 18 Tcy delay
* DelayPORXLCD() provides at least 15ms delay
* DelayXLCD() provides at least 5ms delay
