hi, this is my first posting so please forgive if i violate any customs.

reading the hardware manual i am led to believe that i can write to POTGO
and by doing this redefine the function of the pot pins, thereby having
two I/O pins for my use(just the right port). i have tried this directly,
allocating resources, Disable/Enable, and Forbid/Permit with no results,
the signals on the pins just stay where they were before(other than a spike
at times). the only way i have been able to get the signals to work is by 
a tight loop, which doesn't seem to be what the manual infers. 
	what am i missing??
