I'm wanting to create a 2d array of bits where the less memory used to store
the array the better.  A boolean array is out of the question as a boolean
uses up a byte.  So I looked in the D5 help and found the TBits class.  It
is accessed as a boolean but looking at its source code reveals that its
coded in assembler.  Which I can't read.  So my question is - does TBits
store everything at the bit level or at the byte level?

Alternatively does anyone know of a different approach to doing this where
memory footprint it critical with access speed coming a close second?
