Does anyone know the reasoning behind tip # 7 from:

http://mspgcc.sourceforge.net/manual/c1408.html

7. Use int instead of char or unsigned char if you want an 8 bit integer.

  This is confusing to me because an int is supposedly 16 bits 
(http://mspgcc.sourceforge.net/manual/x987.html).  Why is it not a good idea 
to use chars for small ints?


Thanks,
Kevin
