[Bitfields]How do I display them?

Hello all,
	I have partially converted my MUD to bitfields, and I was wondering
what the best way is to print them out.  Here's what I have now:

void test_print(struct char_data *temp)
{
	int i, *j;

	CLEAR_BITS(PLR_FLAGS(temp));

	/* just a test, set some bits */
	SET_BIT(PLR_FLAGS(temp), PLR_KILLER);
	SET_BIT(PLR_FLAGS(temp), PLR_LOADROOM);
	
	for (i = 0, j = (int*) &PLR_FLAGS(temp); i < sizeof(PLR_FLAGS(temp));
i++) {
		printf("Bit #%2i == %3s\n", i, ONOFF(j[i]));
	}
}

And here's the output:

Bit # 0 ==  ON
Bit # 1 == OFF
Bit # 2 == OFF
Bit # 3 == OFF

It seems to be reading the values as full integers (like I told it to
:->) but how can I get it to step through each bit?  Thanks in
advance...
