your doing 10,000 identical units..... or 10 a year with a spec that get's
changed on a daily basis.... I fall into the latter so more often than not, it's
Maintainability/Readability that's more important.</SPAN></DIV>

<DIV>========================================================</DIV>
<DIV>You'll need to give a summary of the pros and cons of this idea... its a
lose in the speed and space department. Its a win in readability? What other
criterion could possibly outweigh speed and space in any program? If the
boss had a choice of two programs that passed the atp, one was written so that
every variable was accessed with a call and a return instead of just a load, and
as a result, ran slower and needed a bigger size flash, adding $2 extra for
10,000 32k processors instead of 10,000 16k processors, which would he approve
for production?</DIV></FONT><BR><BR><BR>
