The library automatically wraps lines and vertically scrolls text within a text 
area when text is printed and the area reaches its limit similar to a terminal 
device.
Currently, the library always renders characters from left to right,
wraps back to the left when the right edge is reached,
and scrolls the text vertically when it needs room for a new line.
The library will also wrap to a new line when a newline is printed.
The direction of vertical scrolling can be up or down
and can be configured using the mode parameter of the gText functions
DefineArea() and SetTextMode().
See the included html documention for details on these functions.

The library does not have the horizontal scrolling capability of the hd44780 
displays.
The library also does not "remember" any text that is scrolled off the display.
