That gets mentioned later, where I beg and plead for someone to come up with the code to drive an RS-232 port for the "PicBlaster" el-cheapo '84 programmer. :-) Seriously though, you're absolutely right. It doesn't do me much good if I can't download the code I've developed without booting DOS. Doing code for parallel-port programmers is fairly straightforward on IBM-style PCs... but I'd rather use the RS232 port, since more folks are likely to have 'em, and the programmer is really easy to build. So, Matt, should I count you in on the gnupic list? Rick Miller, Design Engineer (and local "Internet Guy") Digalog Systems, Inc. 3180 S. 166th St. New Berlin, WI 53151 USA +1 414 797 8000 x-228
