CVASM is our PIC assembler.  It accepts the Parallax instruction set as
well as the original Microchip instructions. The Parallax instruction set
is much easier to read & remember. It uses 8051-like mnemonics.  CVASM
assembles code for all current 12 and 14 bit PIC devices.

CVASM accepts MPASM mnemonics but does NOT directly assemble MPASM source
code without some hand conversions.  Primarily, CVASM does not support
MACROs, CONDITIONALS or the MPASM directives.  As Tom pointed out, BITS are
defined as literal bit NUMBERs in MPASM and as actual bit ADDRESSES in CVASM.

CVASM is included with all of our PIC products or you can download it from
our web pages.
