How to send a number as a number or How to rule an LED

[Thomas McGrath III]

Well, Thank you very much the numtochar worked perfectly. SInce most of these are either two or three numbers being sent for motor/stepper and LED and will not be more than 255 I will stick with the numtochar() for this. I will still try to come up with a parser for the Arduino for passing commands and arguments but a tleast for now I am Beating that LED into submission and am very happy about it.
