      GNU Pic Simulator, a simulator for 
      Microchip's PIC microcontrollers.
                                
                                
I've just uploaded a new release of gpsim to

Also, you'll probably want to grab the latest release of gpasm
http://www.interstice.com/~sdattalo/gnupic/gpasm-0.0.7d.tar.gz
(This is [still] an unofficial interim release of gpasm. But 
James Bowman has resurfaced and should be releasing gpasm-0.0.8 
very soon.

   -- Interrupts are now supported
   -- TMR0 is implemented       
   -- USART asynchronous mode is supported
 o automake is now used to create the makefiles
 o version numbering has changed so that 'minor releases' 
   (which by definition are the only ones I've made) are 
   now expressed in the middle revision instead of the 
   last revision number.        
 o numerous bug fixes           
 o Cycle counter is now 64 bits.

README:
------
Please see the README file for all of the details on the new features.

INSTALL:
-------
install gpsim the standard way:

tar -xvzf gpsim-0.17.0.tar.gz
./configure
cd gpsim-0.17.0/
make
su root
make install

this will expand into a child directory named gpsim-0.17.0 . From there
you can check the README, README.EXAMPLES, INSTALL, HISTORY, PROCESSORS
and TODO files for more information. The rest of the steps will build
gpsim and place the executable into /usr/local/bin . If you don't have
root privileges then you can copy the executable at
gpsim-0.17.0/gpsim/gpsim to a directory in the execution path . 

Special Thanks goes out to Ralf Forsberg.
