Very common and annoying error. X is being ASSIGNED the value of RCVBUFSIZE rather then being compaired to it. It should be "if (x==RCVBUFSIZE)" and the best coding style to avoid makeing this mistake is to always put the constant first. E.g. "if (RCVBUFSIZE==X)" becuase if you only put in one "=" the compiler will show you the error.' at: '' davec64@gmail.com

if (x = RCVBUFSIZE) // beyond buffer boundary
x = 0; // wrap to begin
note the missing = in the if statement drove me mad for we while!

Regarding the notes on this page:

http://www.piclist.com/techref/microchip/language/c/index.htm

There is absolutely no reason to resort to the following (which is wrong anyway due to its lacking the 'volatile' qualifier):

#define PIN(x,y,z) static bit x @ ((unsigned)&y*8+z)

HI-TECH already provides definitions for PIC SFRs and SFR bits. It's much more straight forward and less error prone to simply use:

#define LED1 RA0
