Pushbutton code routine suggestions?

[jessey]

Hello

Lately I've been playing around with some push buttons to create code that will increase and decrease a word sized variable from 0 to 65535 and to do it fairly quickly while maintaining some kind of reasonable control and visual effect. I did manage to write some code that seems to do the job ok but it uses close to 600 words!!! It still needs a little tweaking but otherwise works great. Would anyone here have any routines or suggestions that would accomplish or complement this, that would possibly use less code space? I've included my code as an attachment below. I've tried to implemented a variable pause that changes (speeds-up) while the push button is held down and then, when the button is released (when you get close to the number you want) and re-pressed, then the number up or down will be slowed down. I checked the archives but couldn't find anything that was related to what I'm trying to do here. Any suggestions or comments will be appreciated.

Thanks
