/* $DOC$
* $FUNCNAME$
* FT_ISBIT()
* $CATEGORY$
* String
* $ONELINER$
* Test the status of an individual bit
* $SYNTAX$
* FT_ISBIT( <cByte>, <nBitPos> ) -> lResult
* $ARGUMENTS$
* <cByte> is a character from CHR(0) to CHR(255)
*
* <nBitPos> is a number from 0 to 7 conforming to standard right-to-left
* bit-numbering convention and representing the position of the
* bit within the byte.
* $RETURNS$
* .T. if designated bit is set (1), .F. if not set (0), NIL if
* invalid parameters.
* $DESCRIPTION$
* Tests for status of any selected bit in the byte passed as a parameter.
* Byte must be presented in CHR() form, as a literal constant, or as the
* one-byte character result of an expression.
*
* This function is presented to illustrate that bit-wise operations
* are possible with Clipper code. For greater speed, write .C or
* .ASM versions and use the Clipper Extend system.
* $EXAMPLES$
* This code tests whether bit 3 is set in the byte represented by
* CHR(107):
*
* lBitflag := FT_ISBIT(CHR(107), 3)
* ? lBitflag // result: .T.
*
* This code tests whether bit 5 is set in the byte represented by ASCII
* 65 (letter 'A')
*
* ? FT_ISBIT('A', 5) // result: .F.
*
* For a demonstration of Clipper bit manipulations, compile and
* link the program BITTEST.PRG in the Nanforum Toolkit source code.
* $SEEALSO$
* FT_BITSET() FT_BITCLR()
* $END$
