I was under the impression that the FLASH specifications didn't cover
the ICD hardware, but there you go...
But they're handy anyway. I've got a Maplin PIC programmer kicking
around somewhere -- the original software only programmed the 16C84, so
I got Microchip to send me a copy of the Mid Range Reference Manual, the
PIC16F84 Programming Specification and the 16F84 datasheet. Spent about
two days writing an Intel HEX loader and PIC programmer engine in Turbo
Pascal.
Good fun... until someone gave me a copy of IC-PROG...
Eh, it was a nice little learning exercise, at least. No idea if I've
still got a copy of the code, probably lost it in a HDD crash sometime.
