Reducing the character set might work, you'll have to figure out how many characters you can support and change MAXCHAR to fit (5 bytes per character, the font follows the ASCII standard fairly closely).

I guess I'll work on rewriting the code again to put the character set into program memory.
That way all that'll be needed is a few bytes of ram for parameter support, about 1K of program space, and some space for the supporting code itself. Should be able to fit that into practically any PIC ('cept for the 10F series, not enough pins )

Which PIC are you using in particular at the moment right now as it stands at this time ?
