Yup. This should allow you to set the LCD display:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
# We're going to be nasty here and remove the lock lcdsleep put in here.
[ -f /etc/locks/.lcdlock ] && rm -f /etc/locks/.lcdlock
# Show what we're doing
/sbin/lcd-write "Hello" "World"
# Put the lock back
touch /etc/locks/.lcdlock
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remember you've only got 16 characters across to play with...
