Sigh...

Ok, here's the code:

    ; WAIT SOME NUMBER OF MILLISECONDS (MORE OR LESS) ON A 14-BIT
    ; PIC RUNNING AT 3.579545 MHZ.
    ;
    ; ENTER WITH THE NUMBER OF MILLISECONDS IN W.

    MSTIMER EQU     [any general-purpose file register]

    WAITMS:

            MOVWF   MSTIMER

    WAITMS1:


            MOVLW   223

    WAITMS2:

            ADDLW   -1
            SKPZ
            GOTO    WAITMS2

            DECFSZ  MSTIMER
            GOTO    WAITMS1

            RETURN

Sorry, but I don't use the Parallax instruction set... Maybe Andy
Kunz will translate it for you.
