Hi Nigel,

You can get more info if you mail to: ccs@execpc.com

The CCS compiler is a easy to use compiler. But beware that the build in
RS232 feature is not an interrupt driven one if the PIC you use has no uart.
I'm planning to use lots of 16C84 and I want them to do more than just
waiting for serial commands. So an interrupt driven RS232 serial routine
must be implemented. I was thinking of rewriting the AN555(asyn. serial I/O)
in C-code. In this note a lot of assembly-time calculations is done with big
numbers. The css-compiler can NOT do this because of it's limited 16bit
defines!. Now I'm trying to 'link' the AN555 object-code in a C-program.
Also not a standard feature :-(
