I am using the HTSOFT PIC18 C compiler and need to write a little program to send and receive data to and from a PC through the serial port probably using HyperTerminal. I am fairly new to these chips and have purchased the PIC18F8720 with development board and I2C programmer. Can someone please help me? Either point me to an example or send one through please.
