No, in fact _my_ PICC manual says nothing about the second __CONFIG
macro line. Back when I needed to know I had to search the HiTech forum
to find it. On the internet :) There have been changes to the manual
since, but the change to the __CONFIG macro was a fairly silent
introduction. That's the way HiTech has always handled updates, with
great email support and out-of-date manuals. The examples that came with
the compiler are for old PICs that do not have Config 2. And include
files have the definitions of the fuses, not the syntax of the macros
that use them. I've been using HiTech since it was beta, so I'm fairly
familiar with how their products have evolved and what to do when
upgrades break stuff. I don't own any of their new products, but it
wouldn't surprise if their documentation hasn't improved. That isn't why
people buy their products, but it's probably why some people don't.
