>Hi everybody

Hi Fernando!

little >confusing for me as I used to work with other more 'classic'
families of mcs >(like MCS51s), so I would appreciate very much your
contributions. Please, tell >me were can I found basic housekeeping routines

Most newbies with the PIC start with the 16F84, it has EEPROM (Flash) memory
which means it can be reprogrammed without placing the chip in UV Light, has
the mid-range architecture (which means interrupts and a deeper stack) and
uses a programmer that can be connected to your PC's serial port consisting
of just a few resistors and capacitors arranged in a somewhat organized
manner.

If you look at my web page:

You should get a lot of the answers you're looking for.  I have a "Snippets"
page with a number of small pieces of code that do exactly what you are
looking for.  I will be updating it in the next day or so with 16 bit
operations.
