I didn't know there was source code supplied with the PICKit1.. I've had a
quick look at that guy's linux code and it mentions the 'documentation' on
the USB protocol used. That makes me feel slightly less inferior,
anyway :)

His code looks very well commented so as you say, it's a good starting
point.

I think I'll get myself one of these PICKit1's and see if I can expand on
it to make it more versatile. I've always wanted to make a USB box with a
PIC in it....

Thanks for all the input chaps,

Tim
