That might be a good idea when you are very very pressed for speed or (code) size and have enough time to do the hand-optimizing, but IMO in most cases the (programmer's time) benefits of modularity (I need a buffered UART output? let's just include the appropriate file!) are more important. -- Wouter van Ooijen -- ------------------------------------------- Van Ooijen Technische Informatica: www.voti.nl consultancy, development, PICmicro products docent Hogeschool van Utrecht: www.voti.nl/hvu -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
