Randy,

PicBasic Pro is a much expanded stamp basic language that is more powerful.
The one and only thing that disappoints me is that PicBasic Pro will not
compile to the 12-bit core PIC's.
My assembly is very poor.  I do "drop-in" asm routines into PicBasic Pro.
It is very nice that it allows this.  Some of the PicBasic compiled code is
just too slow
for some applications.
Best of success.

David
