Many compilers allow you to define bit fields in structs (thats the only way 
I 
know to get *true* bit fields).
struct someStruct
{
   unsigned bit1 :1;
   unsigned bit2 :1;
   unsigned bit3 :1;
   unsigned bit4 :1;
   unsigned bit5 :1;
   unsigned bit6 :1;
   unsigned bit7 :1;
   unsigned bit8 :1;
};
The number after the : indicates how may bits that member uses, so for 1
bit, you would use :1   (I seem to recall some compilers had a problem if the
bit fields didn't add up to a multiple of 8??? but don't quote me on that
