Why is this useful?  Just by looking at the listing out of the compiler you
can see how many bytes are used.  Or, when you program the chip, you can
just look at the last address used.  Maybe I'm missing something, but I
guess I've never really had a problem with wondering how many bytes are
used.  In MPLAB, you can see the program memory listing, which shows all the
locations used, up to the maximum of the chip.
