Summary: have 16F877, have Linux, have gpasm 0.0.7d, but where's a
programmer I can use with a DT-001 or P16PRO40 (aka DIY KIT96)?

After a six month absence from PIC coding, I'm back.  I've gone bush,
now living in outback Australia, and have some 12V batteries that need
charge state monitoring.  So I want an A/D to RS-232.

I've purchased a few 16F877's, gone surfing through the web ring,
scanned my complete PIClist archive, learned a heap.  I find James
Bowman's gpasm site dropped off, but found Scott's copy.  Neat.

Now, I hacked picprg 2.2 a while back for myself to support 12C508/9
chips, and didn't enjoy it.  Has anyone hacked it for 16F877?  I gather
I can't just use it without making some change.

Is there anyone using the Bojan Dobaj P16PRO40 design on Linux with
16F87x chips?  Let's talk.

Oh, I've also written up a few of my PIC projects for Technical Aid to
the Disabled.  http://quozl.us.netrek.org/ has the pictures and
schematics.

Some of you may remember me as cameron@stl.dec.com, or
james.cameron@digital.com.
