I've been using Kevin Watson's interrupt template code. I want to have a variable increment every time the interrupt fires. that's not a problem. however, is there a static variable type available that I can use between files? I'm not aware of such a thing. also, does the code in interrupts.c execute first, or the code in user_routines_fast.c go first? this affects whether I use the interrupts.c file to handle the motor speed or the user_routines_fast.c file to handle the speed of the motor. if the user routines file comes second, that would be the case where I need the variable. I'm willing to bet there's an easier way, but this is what I've come up with so far. I would use Kevin's template for encoders but it supports two encoders for the wheels, when I want to use the one we already have set up on digitals 1 and 2 with one motor. we'll probably have to use his eventually on the wheels in addition to this encoder.
thanks,
Stephen.
