Post by thread:PIC tables for TASM table based assembler

Does anyone know if there are any PIC instruction set tables available for TASM table based assembler? I'd like to use this assebler for all my coding rather than swapping between asseblers if pos.

While you could probably tell it to generate two-byte instructions just fine for the 6x parts [don't know if it could handle the 5/3 division in the LSB on the 5x parts] you might have a little trouble getting it to handle addresses correctly. Perhaps you could have two sets of tables--one for MSB, one for LSB, assemble your program twice, and then have a program to put the two halves together. Would be a little bizarre, but I think TASM could probably handle it (esp. if you put a little bit of overlap on the two sides; make the MSB half be bits 7-13 and the LSB half bits 0-7 [or, for the 5x parts, make the MSB half bits 4-11 and the LSB half bits 0-7]. How does that sound for a technique?
