I have CCS, Hi-Tech, Microchip compilers when it comes the get projects done always CCS is the winner. why? 1. Built in functions "ready to use": not enough time to make one 2. good examples to learn: this is good for new projects never done it before 3. excellent support: 4. IDE, compiler, demo boards made by same company 5. when it comes to bugs in compiler "they all have no matter how much $$$ you paid".

Subject: Re: [PIC] GPL C compiler for PIC I would recommend PICC and PICC18 from HI-tech. It is a bit expensive, but with the code efficiency and time you saved, it is money well spend. I saw friends using PICC write code for PIC12F508, which only has 512 flash spaces. They seem to be very happy with the code it turns out. Funny N.

I've heard MPLAB has a free version for windows, but would like to use C for some PIC programming. Not that I'm against assembly, but some beefier code I'd like to do in C. -Josh -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist ____________________________________________________________________________________ Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Yahoo!
