Hi John,

There are a lot of variations when it comes to C on the PIC. You say you
have an existing program. How good are you at porting a program written
for one vendor's C to another? printf? math? I/O?

Many C compilers come with a time- or size-limited version. That might be
your best option. Figure out what compiler this program you want to
compile is written for, and get the demo.

Cheers,

Bob
