Hi Folks,

I just wanted to let everyone know that I just put a new version of PICLite
on my website at:

http://www.myke.com/piclite

This version is a <i>major</i> upgrade of the previous version along with
fixing a number of problems (including figuring out why the listing file was
produced as read only) I have added a macro processor to the language.

This macro processor is pretty sophisticated and will allow conditionally
compiled statements, variables and setting code with variable information.

Along with the macro processor, I have added the file "structur.mac" to the
piclite.zip file which contains the macros for "if/else/end", "while/end"
and "for/end" constructs ("select" will be coming).

So, if you want to put in a conditional if/else/end into the language, the
macros:

  mif ( condition )             - "if" statement

   :                            - Code Executed if "condition" is true

  melse()                       - Stop Executing code if "condition" is true

   :                            - Execute if "condition" is not true

  mend()                        - finsihed with the "mif" statement

Please give it a try and if you find any problems, please let me know.
