Hi Erik: I may just load this stuff up on my xp machine and do what I need. Your dealing with a complete amateur here. I am not a programmer, yet, at least with the dspic's. I am building a servo board that someone else designed and wrote a c program for. While I have wrote several programs, long ago. Back then, I was writing instructions for a coordinate measurement machine called a cordex. These instructions were in the form of very early numerical control format. The numerical controlled milling centers, that were in the shop, used the same type of punched paper tape my machine did, for recording the program, but the commands for their machines were g code and mine was not. A few years after I moved to Florida and opened my art studio, I realized that the stuff I was writing was not much different than basic. Bendex corp. changed the format of the commands, but I think that is all it was. If I wanted to read the code for errors, I had to have the terminal print it, no monitor. I am a man in a cardboard box, in the middle of the river, without a paddle!
