 *
 * added '-d' (debugging) switch
 * added several debugging messages
 * removed config entry 'Delay' for HD44780 driver
 * delay loop for HD44780 will be calibrated automatically
 *
 * Revision 1.2  2000/04/13 06:09:52  reinelt
 *
 * added BogoMips() to system.c (not used by now, maybe sometimes we can
 * calibrate our delay loop with this value)
 *
 * added delay loop to HD44780 driver. It seems to be quite fast now. Hopefully
 * no compiler will optimize away the delay loop!
 *
 * Revision 1.1  2000/04/12 08:05:45  reinelt
 *
 * first version of the HD44780 driver
