Inchworm "Hello World" (your first PIC program) draft #1

[William At MyBlueRoom]

I've attached the first draft of my Inchworm (or any PIC programmer) Hello World (Hello world is often the first program most beginners write to get their feet wet)
I've not tested the 18F2525 version yet.
Comments and opinions always welcome.

Awsome! I just got my inchworm Friday. I haven't had a chance to put it together yet though.

I'm having trouble coming up with a serial port cable though. I was pretty sure I hade one somplace, but I can't find it. Can you use a USB to serial cable/adapter?

Yep, it's a straight through cable or if you can directly to the USB - RS232 (male) adapter. Some are fussy and you must make it COM1 or COM2 & turn the FIFO off.
