CompressBinaryStrings_7bit:
; HL = pointer to output
; DE = pointer to input. Input is assumed to equal &30 or &31
; Usage:
; LD hl,OutputRam
; LD de,InputRam
; CALL CompressBinaryStrings_7bit
; If the string "runs out" before the 8 bit boundary, the rest are rotated into place.
; e.g. input = "0101" then the procedure will RLC until those bits
; are as far left as possible.
outerloop:
inc de ;skip bit 7
ld b,7 ;loop counter
innerloop:
ld a,(de)
or a ;compares accumulator to zero. Assumes a null-terminated string.
; Otherwise compare A to your terminator of choice.

;input is assumed to be &30 or &31, so the least significant bit tells us
; all we need to know. The rest of the byte can be discarded.
