Wow!  That sounds like an interesting application.  If you get some time,
I'd be interested in seeing it.

Just a note about the 16 bit operations, they produce the correct 16 bit
value, but the carry (ie set after addition result > 65,536) may not be
correct.  This is an issue in some applications; most typically, I see other
add/subtract code snippets which keep the carry correct for noting that an
out of bound condition exists - the problem is that they don't produce the
correct 16 bit result.

Hmmm...  Maybe I should come up with a snippet that does both.

Regarding the HP 16C calculator thread; I guess I'm a genius.  When I was at
school, I bought two of them (one for work, one for home).  They are the
best programmer's calculators any developed - I would be lost without mine.
I just wish HP would come up with an updated version.

Sorry, I've been away for a few days; if you've sent me a note and are
looking for a reply, I'll get to it in the next few days.

Toodles,
