NEW VERSION OF PROGRAMMER SOFTWARE
I made 2 new QBASIC pgms for programming the PIC. These programs do not solve a problem I have been working on., but they clean up and speed up the process.
A program called INBTWEEN.BAS takes the hex file produced by my ASSEMBLER and prodeuces a file of 16 character strings, all containing 1's & 0's.
Ther second program WORKRND2.BAS reads the string file and sends this data along with the necessary programming COMMANDS to the PIC. Note that I still have to enter & leave programming mode each time I write an instruction to the PIC. But I have cleaned up the code and the processing. I have a variable I use for delay loops. Up to now I have been using 1000, but I have found by experiment that the program works at 100, which has speeded things up tremendously
