 |  | I just got the stepper rountine working in my board this weekend. 
 
 There were some problems initially. I had to replace the cycle_length with
 the actual number (4).
 
 There were also some errors with variable type conversions, for example FAST
 and SLOW are long, so you need to assign variables as FAST =8L.
 
 In addition, msleep() needs a long but delay is an int, so you need to call
 it with a conversion, msleep((long)delay).
 
 If you like, I can e-mail you the actual code I used.
