The Microchip data sheet says the 16C7X PIC's can be programmed
in-circuit via RB6,RB7, VDD, VSS, and MCLR.

1. Has anybody done this.

2. I have a PICSTART Plus programmer, can I hook the appropriate pins on
the PICSTART to the 16C7X and  program it in-circuit.  I followed the
data sheet suggestions for in-circuit programming while developing the
 schematic for the board.

3. If not #2, is there any available software to read a Mplab programming
file and generate the programming  waveforms using a PC parallel port.
