PICers .. Myke, Tony et al

OK, I *thought* I got a handle on the ol'DT table as used with a
single line. ie

addwf PCL,
dt '0123456789ABCDEF',0
like we talked about before.

But then I look at other code and I see MULTIPLE DT's called by the
one addwf instruction.
Take Steve Lawther's code (tstdmlcd.asm) for a T6963 graphics LCd
interface for instance :-

getwelcomebyte
                org     0x2FE
                movwf   tempone
                movlw   0x03
                movwf   PCLATH
                movf    countno, W
                ;retlw   0xAA
                addwf   PCL, F
                dt      0x82, 0xFE, 0x80, 0x80, 0x7C   ;, 0x1F, 0x25,
0x2C  ;0 - 7
                dt      0x82, 0xFE, 0x80, 0x80, 0x7C   ;, 0x1F, 0x25,
0x2C  ;0 - 7

                dt      0x82, 0x80, 0x80, 0x80, 0x82   ;, 0x50, 0x56,
0x5C  ;8 - 15
                dt      0x82, 0x80, 0x80, 0x80, 0x82   ;, 0x50, 0x56,
0x5C  ;8 - 15

                dt      0x82, 0x80, 0x80, 0x80, 0x82   ;, 0x7E, 0x83,
0x88  ;16 - 23
                dt      0x82, 0x80, 0x80, 0x80, 0x82   ;, 0x7E, 0x83,
0x88  ;16 - 23
                .... and lots more

AAaargh ! What's he doing with all these tables?? Your addwf jump is
only gonna access the one DT statement isn't it? What's with the hex
bytes & comma after the ; ?

I figured if i wanted to select different messages I'd haver to call
separate DT tables, like so  :-

List1 addwf PCL,1
      DT 'message #1'

List2  addwf PCL,1
       DT 'message # 2'   & etc

So this is NOT so?
