Fast way to rotate a char?

Im not talking about rol or ror, but swap bits so that they are rotated 90 degrees:

Example:

a char (and the bits can be random):
10110010 byte 1..
11010110 byte 2.. etc..
00111001
01010110
11011010
10110101
00110011
10110100
after "rotation" (rows and columns are swapped):
11001101
01011000
10100111
11111111
00101000
01010101
11011010
00100110
is it possible to use lookup tables for this or would that lookup table be too big?
or other lookuptable for getting and setting bits?

I was assuming hires 8x8 chars. That makes the most sense and is the most interesting challenge. And looks like it´s what Rudi is watching for.

yes, i was initially looking at hires 8x8 char.

Edit: current techniques just seem too slow for many chars. wished someone could do some magic tricks :)

Haha, I got semi tired of it after setting up that HAM8-mode. :) But it was a fun excercies and fun to figure out the bitpatterns myself, then you told me, and I was actually correct (for once).

Magic sometimes happens when you ditch working on a generic solution and instead concentrate on one that fits your particular data set or use case.

Not implying that a generic solution is less interesting, mind.
