Hi,
I must confess that I never even knew what a "PIC" was until I came across them here and on other RC related places. Now I have a strange urge to learn how to use and program them myself. I haven't done any coding for a long time, but I used to be quite fluent in C as well as Assembler and others. In my youth I did some projects with earlier micro controllers like the 6501 based chips whose name escapes me, and some others.
What would I need to get myself able to compile and download code into these little beasties? Also, are there online sites where I could find reference information and example implementations?
Thanks, Tony S
