Well, ByteCraft has sent me a new update free of charge of their PIC C compiler. It now sports a separate linker and named spaces. Congratulations to ByteCraft for standing behind their product!! I haven't used the new compiler yet, but it looks pretty interesting. (I have nothing to do with ByteCraft, other than I am a customer of theirs). -- James Musselman President Radix/Cobalt Instruments, Inc.
