   Thanks for all the helpful device but the darned thing still does not work. I have created a simplified program to try to figure out what I am doing wrong.

        Re: IC trouble - function definition —David Kott
     (...) whoa! Local function definitions. Even GCC doesn't grok that. Try extracting the function definition phony() from start() like so: long time; void phony() { while (digital(2) == 1) { time = mseconds(); } } void start() { phony(); } -d (...)
