These days I only use C too (HI-TECH), a trick I've used when running short of
program memory is to preset the result of a test, for example;

Fred = 10;
if(RB0) Fred = 20;

uses 3 program words less than,

if(RB0) Fred = 10;
  else Fred = 20;

Beware of any interrupt routine which uses Fred though!

Regards,

Nigel
