Re: Simulating C code in a PIC in Linux

Hello Jason,

Thank you for posting the articles for programming PIC with Linux.  I am 
retired but programming PICs is something I look forward to.  To date 
the only micro-controller I have programmed is a BASIC Stamp and I found 
it too slow for what I want to do (a 3 phase motor controller).
