Richard,

Thanks for the reply.

In my response to Andrew I replaced the wordy handler with one that
simply toggles the led. I got the same response. It only works if I
call the handler as a subroutine first.

I am using ooPic III+ instead of II+ and C.1.1+ instead of B.2.2+.
IN another post Dennis suspects the C.1.1+ compiler.

By the way, thanks for pointing out that you don't need to keep the
main thread alive with an endless loop like you do in higher multi-
threaded environments. Good to know.

Thanks,
Dogulas
