Raspberry Pi 4B, RASPIO 64 bit Bullseye Lite, Swift Version 5.5

For example, to read the Status Register of an SHT31 (datasheet page 13)

would require...

i2c.writeByte(0x44, command: 0xF3, value: 0x2D)
let data = i2c.readData(0x44) // would return 6 bytes, but this is not possible.

It would also be helpful to be able to send word commands like this...

i2c.writeWord(0x44, command: 0xF32D)

Any help with this would be most helpful, because I'm completely stuck.
