I am sure more people than me are looking forward to that!
About the "smaller" integer variables, I have put together a couple of macros
that simulate an array of packed "small" integers, any bit size works, but
power-of-2 sizes do not waste space. Because there is no support from the
compiler, there are things to be adjusted manually, but it works (even if it's
not very fast or pretty *s*)
I will post the code in a few days, once I get my PC at home running.
*Another wish* (maybe was already suggested?): a more powerful macro facility.
What I could use is the ## operator for textual concatenation...
