flags – Setting and clearing of flags in bit fields

This pack­age al­lows the set­ting and clear­ing of flags in bit fields and con­verts the bit field into a dec­i­mal num­ber. Cur­rently the bit field is lim­ited to 31 bits.
It is now dep­re­cated be­cause of new more pow­er­ful pack­age bit­set.
The pack­age is part of the oberdiek bun­dle.
