No, I don't see what you mean.
Do you mean that...
1) the other component sends a series of ASCII characters that are either 1's or 0's

For individual bytes use getc to get a char, and putch to output a char. (or is it getch and putc?! )
ANDing the char with 0x01, 0x02 is indeed the way to go, to check bits.
char c ... |

There are various SRs (HC595 comes to mind), but (depending on LED type) you can run the sink from an HC373 latch (rows) and then source from a P channel mosfet array or a driver chip (columns). Latch ... |

Mark, thanks for that. Damn! Forgot about the dreaded interrupt setup time!
I guess the only way to poll kbhit at '10 times the bit rate' for a 9600 baud soft UART is to do it in a tight loop? |

ckielstra, the CP2102 is being sampled in the UK next week - I have a few on order.
And, the USB and the RS232 interfaces are used at different times (RS232 for data in, then USB for data out at a ... |

Thanks ckielstra
I appreciate your saying that there is not much RAM on the 87, but my app is very very simple, and doesn't need much RAM.... the data rate in is 9600 baud and all I'm doing is stor ... |

You are absolutely correct, Ttelmah, AN4 is on RA5.
Never mind, it all works now! Until the next crisis! |

Thanks everyone, I have this just-about-working now.
It exhibited the same probs with a simple program.
I couldn't get the direct bit programming option to work (too impatient!)
