I'm am mixing some PWM signals and storing them as global variables (about 50 variables) to be used in different modules. I can store them as integers, but...

Yes. Read up on registers. Port A is pins 13 - 20. Port C is pins 5 - 12 For example register.ddrA = bx0111_0000 will set pin 13 low, and pins 14-16 high. ...
