I wouldn't really want them to clutter up the description of each instruction with the special case "except when the result is written to PCL, then it takes an extra cycle". This IS said elsewhere in the manual, and should also be obvious from common sense about how the PIC works, which is also in the manual. > Now, If you read the WHOLE datasheet you will know that Yes, there are many useful things one will know after reading the whole datasheet. That's why they wrote the whole data sheet. ***************************************************************** Embed Inc, embedded system specialists in Littleton Massachusetts (978) 742-9014, http://www.embedinc.com _______________________________________________ http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
