One way would be to define your own UBYTE type in Blackbox along with a
couple of conversion functions. Something like this:
TYPE
UBYTE = SHORTCHAR;
PROCEDURE IntToUBYTE(i: INTEGER): UBYTE;
BEGIN
RETURN SHORT(CHR(i))
END IntToUBYTE;
PROCEDURE UBYTEToInt(u: UBYTE): INTEGER;
BEGIN
RETURN ORD(u)
END UBYTEToInt;
