173 characters, although sometimes only 16, 20 or 24 of them are really wired
174 to the terminal. This results in some non-visible but addressable characters,
175 and is the case for most parallel LCDs. Other LCDs, and some serial ones,
176 however, use the same line width internally as what is visible. The KS0074
177 for example, uses 16 characters per line for 16 visible characters per line.
