 That's fine, but the discussion was about C programming, not assembly.
 Andrew's statement
was of interest to me because I wondered a) how he knew how other people
programmed
in C and 2) my main interest is how this was done, since I don't believe
arrays of bits, or bit operations
in general for that matter,  are well supported (?) in any of the
existing compilers.
