NAME
	set_bit - set a specific bit in a bitfield

SYNOPSIS
	string set_bit(string bitfield, int bitnum)

DESCRIPTION
	Sets a bit with the number 'bitnum' in a specifically coded string
	'bitfield'. The bitfield string is a string consisting of writable
	characters. Each character represents six bits.

	The 'bitfield' string is automatically extended to satisfy the setting
	of bits outside the current string size.

CAVEAT
	There is a maximum bitindex number which can be changed in config.h
	in the gamedriver source. This constant is normally 1200.
