    g0> MPL is supposed to support your typical bitwise operators (keywords   
    g0> and/or/xor/shl/shr) but clearly something is not working.   
      
   I certainly miss them when they're not there, but an arithmetic solution   
   proved just as good.   
      
    g0> There are also three functions that allow you to check, set, and toggle   
    g0> bits in any integer type that MPL supports which can be used for now   
    g0> until I figure out what happened.   
    g0>    
    g0> This is in a WHATSNEW from way back in 2011 (The number you pass is the   
    g0> actual bit you want to check, set or toggle ie 1-32)   
    g0>    
    g0>  + New MPL function "BitCheck" accepts a bit position and checks it   
    g0> against an integer, returning true or false if the bit is on.  So for   
    g0> example in the Records, the third bit in UserFlags is UserDeleted:   
    g0>    
    g0>      GetThisUser   
    g0>      If BitCheck(3, UserFlags) Then WriteLn('User is marked deleted');   
    g0>    
    g0>    Note that this was implemented before actual bitwise math, which also   
    g0>    made it into this version.  Keep reading! :)   
    g0>    
    g0>  + New MPL function "BitToggle" accepts a bit position and an integer and   
    g0>    toggles the bit.   
    g0>    
    g0>      GetThisUser   
    g0>      BitToggle(3, UserFlags);  // undeletes if they are deleted or   
    g0> deletes if // they are not deleted.   
    g0>    
    g0>  + New MPL function "BitSet" accepts a bit position and an integer and   
    g0> sets the bit ON/OFF based on a boolean:   
    g0>    
    g0>      GetThisUser   
    g0>      BitSet(3, UserFlags, True);  // user is marked as deleted   
       
   Thanks g00r00, I appreciate the additional information.
