Does the BS1 have a Bit test? Not a pin, but for an internal byte.
I just wanna test a bit of a byte. Sure I can use boolean logic, but
hey, its a BASIC Stamp, it should be easier. (Even the Assembler of
a PIC has this)

these bits as Bit0 - Bit15. Table 4.1 in the manual covers BS1 variables.

John, based on something you said to me the other day
about aliasing, couldn't you test a bit by doing
something similar? i.e.
x var word
xb1 var x.bit1
