Welcome. I've now got the code compiling and running under gpsim. I've
found an sdcc bug - the {x=|y;} operator does not correctly compile so
I've had to use {x=(y==0):1:0;} instead. I've seen worse.

At least I can program the things in 'C' somehow!

Yup. I adopt a simpler solution - order more capable PIC samples :) I
can count on Moore's law giving me a suitable low-cost solution by the
time the RepRap is being used by the general public. Early adopters
won't care.
