I'm still a novice when it comes to PIC programming.  While a Mac is my pri=
mary computer at home, I run XP in a virtual machine to run MPLAB without i=
ssue.  The other day, I downloaded the latest beta of MPLAB X and installed=
 it on the Mac in the OSX environment.  I must have a configuration issue, =
because it is not recognizing PIC specific statements in the C code - 'TRIS=
B =3D 0x03' as an example is squiggly underlined as invalid.  The Hi-Tech c=
ompiler is set in the preferences.  If anyone else has experienced this, pl=
ease let me know where to look for a problem.

On another issue, I did read where the Pickit2 will indeed be supported in =
a future beta release, and definitely in the production release of MPLAB X.
