I guess my question would be how you would propose to bridge the gap between the sort of IO, memory, etc... that C was designed for and the sort of IO, memory, etc.. that the average PIC has? Most of the device dependency, as far as I can see, is to deal with the limitations and abilities of the devices. I'm not trying to say it can't be done, but I'm curious to see if you have thoughts on how it could have been done better. --- James Newton: PICList webmaster/Admin mailto:jamesnewton@piclist.com 1-619-652-0593 phone http://www.piclist.com/member/JMN-EFP-786 PIC/PICList FAQ: http://www.piclist.com -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
