Just a comment... in the actual MakerBit extension blocks for MakeCode, we don't use "0" for the LCD. Characters are 1-16 on line 1, and 17-32 on line 2. The use of "0" in arrays and in the LCD actually causes a lot of headaches and extra time in class for explaining what is not intuitive. Imagine, "Now students, to put the letter A at the 5th position, use 4". It "can" be explained, but a lot easier is, "Now students, put the letter A in the 5th position using 5", etc. For arrays, in actual classsroom work, we spent a lot of time trying to describe and fix bugs where students were struggling with the 5th element for example) being accessed with I=4. It all got much easier when we changed to 1-to-n counting schemes. just fyi

Strange, does this API support new lines? https://github.com/1010Technologies/pxt-makerbit-lcd1602/blob/master/jacdac/main.ts#LL54C26-L54C45
The message string is assembled at https://github.com/microsoft/pxt-jacdac/blob/master/character-screen/client.ts#L183 using \nā as the new line character

OK, thanks! That should be the reason. So the extension has to support newline.
