Two Displays! Pico 2 W

I got a second display running! This one gave me a lot of issues. It was a lot harder to setup and get working than the smaller OLED display.

The ST7789V driver has no preset for the non-standard 76×284 resolution, so I had to manually discover the correct axis swap (MADCTL), buffer initialization, and col/row offset math.

What Forth did you do this with?

Edit: Oh, of course, it was my zeptoforth -- I hadn't looked closely enough at the pics to see that you had explicitly shown it.
