Hi Michael,
Try
http://ubasics.com/adam/electronics/lcd/cc5xlcd.c
the link was on
http://www.piclist.org/techref/microchip/language/c/ios.htm
their is a couple LCD routines in C on that page.
The CC5X code is for a 16c66, but it should be easy to convert
to a F877, also I looked at the code quickly, you would be
better off using portb instead of porta, as porta needs to be configured
to digital when you power up the chip(f877).
I am not familiar with CC5X, I use CCSC.
However, fee free to contact me with any questions
Goodluck,
Kevin
I could send you a hex file to test your hardware setup,
I use the CCSC lcd.c driver routine and can't give
you the source :(
