Hi mem,
Thanks, you are absolutely right - it did say 'Arduino C' at one time - now it does again - just corrected. 
Hi Cheater,
Quote 'By the way if anyone is curious about why the Arduino code compiles bigger than the Bascom code, its because the Arduino does the pin number conversion at run time while the library for Bascom does it at run(compile) time.'
I agree - so why not use the same Set/Reset P0-P13 in C and let it also run at assembler speed ?
Thanks for input.
