Just some asm code to add some decent IO to your PC.

What's a PIC16F960? Some kind of exotic engineering sample?

That is funny.

It's not found on microchips web site, however its listed as an include file in mplab at: C:\\Program Files\\Microchip\\MPASM Suite\\P16F690.INC

Go figure.

Sorry Spehro I did not see your posting.

Nah, that's the PIC16F690. Everyone has a few of those kicking around, but Jan seems to have access to a supply of PIC16F960s.

No, typo!!!! 690! If you had looked at the asm it clearly stated 690.inc I have fixed the web page.

But this one needs to be programmed in Dutch and supplied with Beerenburger.

You seem to have some pre-occupation with Beerenburger..... It can be used to clean the PIC though. I managed to shoot some Dutch color codes recently: ftp://panteltje.com/pub/color_codes.jpg

I used to love that stuff.

Nice. Very cloudy, just like here :-(

PS I have added the Linux C source for a small communications program specially for this PIC project. It can be modified to add commands and parsing. As many have problems with writing this sort of terminal programs, here is about the simplest 100% working example. It is at the bottom of the web page,

Added scripting option, example, so anybody with Linux can use it now.
