OK, I feel like a newbie, but I can't figure out how to check individual
bits in a char or int.  I heard something about a bitmask, but I'm not
sure how to use one.  I want to know this becuase I have a whole bunch
of vars that will only contain a 1 or a 0 and I figure that it would be
easier for me to have eight of these in one byte, not in eight.

Thanks
Andy
