Post by thread:apnset02.zip corrupt

Hi folks, I4ve had some problems unzipping the file "/pub/mchipsoft/mchipsoft/picapp/apnset02.zip" at ftp.sics.se. (double-zipped file math.zip is corrupted) Could anybody unzip it ??? I used the newest version (2.04g) of PKWARE's pkunzip.exe for DOS. PKZIPFIX didn't work either. Perhaps this file should be renewed! Others are OK. Does anybody already have some experience with the MPASM (by Byte Craft Limited of Waterloo and MCHIP itself)??? I got MPASM___.ZIP from the MCHIP BBS. It seems to become the new enhenced general assembler for the PIC families or is it already destributed along with any HW-tools? I'm just working with the PICSTART-16B. There should also be a C-Compiler (MPC) soon! Am I right? Please give me some respond about it... By the way, for my research (MEMS) I designed a simple "Multi process Kernel" for the PIC 16C71. All my programms (3 to be exact) now base on it. The main part is an interrupt manager which branches to several processes (subroutines) and it supports a serial line (RS 232/485 - half or full duplex) by interrupt up to 19.6kB (8N1). A simple protocoll is suggested and only 7 file registers are used for its minimum running (CRCs and double FSRs are also available (+4bytes)). The kernel exchanges serial data via two fileregisters and Ready/Send flags. Errors are also flagged. The usage of this "MpK" is fast and easy: fill up the empty structure with your own code, data and initialization. Is there any interest for it ??? I indent to send the code to the PIC code library at spam_OUTtomTakeThisOuTtakdsign.demon.co.uk! Thanks - Michael Kellenberger
