I'd just rather use command-line MPASM, but the web-distributed 
version hasn't been updated with all of the newer device .INC files, 
so you've got to download the MPLAB IDE and install it before you can 
grab the file you need for MPASM.   Bit of a bother.  I'll drop 
Microchip a suggestion that they package the .INC files separately 
for those of us averse to using their IDE.

(Sorry for the OT, Jay.)
