Yes, I know. I have experimented with many of these
situations in arduino c dialect before.

Thats what I try to do as a very first test.
Looks like I don't get how to do it (see other post).

I have different applications in mind with different requirements.
I think I should be able to figure that part out once I'm over the
very basic problems like uploading files and timer initialisation.

Despite the fact that I'm in a beginners exploring phase and absolutely
want to reinvent the wheel myself and try to understand every single bit
I am still very interested to look at your code to have some working
examples to learn from.
