<P><FONT SIZE=2>Has anyone tried out the free C compiler for PICs called CC5Xfree? You can get it at <A HREF="http://www.bknd.com/cc5x/index.shtml" TARGET="_blank">http://www.bknd.com/cc5x/index.shtml</A>. It's a slightly disabled version of the non-free version but still a very usable product.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I've found that after a little effort to structure the C code to to yield efficient ASM code, you'd be hard pressed to code ASM so efficiently. Very nice for free!</FONT></P>
