Hi, im new to pics, tho have been using avrs for awhile, I found some programmer schmatics and the FFP09 program... but its documentation is.. very lacking, specialy on the dos mode verison. id much perfer to use batch files to program but some of the flags are confuseing with 0 documentation(like how to set what configuration it uses) and id like to mod my avr programmer to also do pics. Basicly, my questions are as follows: Does this program even work with the PIC18F4550? Does anyone have proper documentation on this program? the readme has just 'To be completed ... ' sections everywhere. If not, can anyone suggest a program? one that uses the LPT port and allows low voltage programming, and lets me set what pins it uses, and perferabley one that lets me set an aux pin low while programming and high when finished (my programmer uses a tristate buffer) tho if it leaves unused pins alone I have a program I can use to set the pins. and last but not least, allows command line (ie bat file) programming -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
