Hi again PicForthers, I've released a package called 'lib3' - a comprehensive set of arithmetic, relational, stack, constant, variable and storage operators for signed 24-bit (3-byte) integers. All info and tarball on wiki page: http://wiki.enst.fr/bin/view/Picforth/Lib3 For a brief history - 16-bit was too small for me, and I found 32 bit to be a real resource hog, so I settled on 24-bit as a happy medium. The ability to manipulate values between -8,388,608 and 8,388,607 meets most of my needs, so hopefully it will fit the bill for others. -- Cheers David
