function out=RPI_lcdInit(rows,cols,bits,rs,strb,d0,d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6,d7)
// Function to initialize lcd
//
// Calling Sequence
//  RPI_lcdInit(rows,cols,bits,rs,strb,d0,d1,d2,d3,d4,d5,d6,d7)
//
// Parameters
//  rows: numer of rows in lcd
//  cols: numer of colums in lcd
//  bits: number of bits wide on the interface (4 or 8) 
//  rs  : pin number of display RS
//  strb: pin number of strobe (E)
//  d0  : pin number of data pin 1
//  d1  : pin number of data pin 2
//  d2  : pin number of data pin 3
//  d3  : pin number of data pin 4
//  d4  : pin number of data pin 5
//  d5  : pin number of data pin 6
//  d6  : pin number of data pin 7
//  d7  : pin number of data pin 8
//
// Description
//  This function initalizes an lcd display attaced to the Raspberry pi. The return value is the file-descriptor to be used for all subsequent calls to the lcd library when dealing with that LCD, or -1 to indicate a fault. (Usually incorrect parameters)
//
//  The numberin sequence to be followed as initiated using RPI_pinNumbering
//
// Examples
//  fd=RPI_lcdInit (2,16,8,11,10,0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7) ;
