Hi again PicForthers,
I've released a package called 'lib3' - a comprehensive set of
arithmetic, relational, stack, constant, variable and storage operators
for signed 24-bit (3-byte) integers.
All info and tarball on wiki page:

For a brief history - 16-bit was too small for me, and I found 32 bit to
be a real resource hog, so I settled on 24-bit as a happy medium. The
ability to manipulate values between -8,388,608 and 8,388,607 meets most
of my needs, so hopefully it will fit the bill for others.

Cheers
