The doesn't work, meant, it compiled and ran, but, the display got=20
filled with garbage. What I should have done is tried to debug that, and=20
running in MPLAB-SIM, I get the error:
CORE-E0001: Stack over flow error occurred from instruction at 0x000c10

with this line: (one at a time)

printf ((rom unsigned char*) "%2d %2d", month, day);

or:

printf ( "%2d %2d", month, day);

and as suggested: (less the 2 single quotes), it ran, but the entire LCD=20
line was garbage.

printf ((const rom far char'') "%2d %2d", month, day);
