K&R wasn't on my mind, either! :-)

I'm very happy to contribute to it, and even though there's room for 
improvements on adjacent areas, I'll be satisfied to reach the goal of 
writing to 18fx52, as we go (currently, I only have 18f252 & 18f452 for 
testing. Since some of the required data (apparently) wasn't available 
on the headers sent to the picstart, I had to add those by hand to the 
device structure).

As for maintaining, I'm not a pic programmer myself, and I currently 
lack free time, so I don't believe I'm the man for the task, at least 
not nowadays. Nevertheless, I'll be glad to help anyone whiling to the 
task, as long as I can...
