Javelin equivalent of OutL?

In BS2, I can write:
LEDs VAR OutL then do
LEDs = counter (where counter is VAR Byte)
Is there a similar thing in Javelin where I can access all 8 bits of a port as a group (instead of turning each pins separately)?
If yes, how about accessing ports as 4 individual Nibs?·(similar to if I had
LEDs VAR OUTA above)
Or one Word (control all 16 ports at same time)? (similar to if I had
LEDs VAR OUTS above).
Thanks.

but you can access pins bytewise by the use of the constants
CPU.PORTA (pins 0-7) and CPU.PORTB (pins 8-15).
and you access the byteports using the methods
CPU.readPort() ,·CPU.writePort() and CPU.setInput()
To use nibbles shift left/right 4 bits leaving not referenced bits intact
(so you should create a byte shadow variable).
