That is probably *way* too little code to get something usable
running. There is no setup of the processor, ports, analog
port functions and so on.

On avarage there usualy will be 10-20 commands where some
registers are setup/configured to match what you want.
And then there are the CONFIG settings also.

You say "...I'm familiar with C. I've not used PICs before..."

Right, your familarity with C will not help you a single bit.
You will never get anything to run correctly, no matter if it's
in C or anything else, if you do not know how PIC is working.

I'd guess that the simplest solution would be to get someone
to put the code together. I do not know what the applicaation
is supposed to do, but judging from your circuit, it can't be
that complicated. Someone who has what you are lacking (knowledge
of PICs) would probably put it together in more or less notime.

Your circuit as such is probably OK (it is lacking decoupling
capacitors, though).
