-When initializing the class, the last parameter is for the RW feature, however, the previous version of code said it was the lcd_backlight. Renamed it to lcd_rw.
-Renamed the comment spelling from Initialise to Initialize.
-Changed the comments from "# pin 4" (for example) to "# LCD pin 4" to let the user know we're talking about the LCD pin, not a Pi BOARD/BCM association.

@ladyada Turns out I don't have the right hdmi cable so I can connect the pi to my monitor and connect it to the internet here, so I won't be able to test this until that cable comes in which should be Tuesday or Wednesday

hihi why do you need hdmi?

@ladyada I need hdmi since I haven't used my Pi since I moved into my dorm so it isn't connected to the wifi and the wifi requires you to login through a web browser. After that, I'll just ssh into it.

You could try the lynx web browser which is terminal-based, might not work with the login page, but possible. Also you can set the Pi up for VNC remote desktop even if it's headless: there are some web tutorials on this (I was just looking at this a few days ago).

@ladyada So apparently the 16x2 display I've got isn't RGB (I thought I bought the RGB one a few months ago to use with the USB adapter, but I guess I ordered the wrong one). Would you like me to see about getting an RGB one or should I hand this off to someone who already has the hardware?

@chadkuester By the way, if you run black and pylint, your code may pass the CI. Guide on doing that here: https://learn.adafruit.com/improve-your-code-with-pylint

Tested after merging with the new simpletest and it works fine (the rgb in the old simpletest never really worked for me) and it didn't seem to break anything.
