misunderstood, laughable or a disgrace?

re 4.128

check out the new function explanation in the manual

set_pullup(1,PIN_B1);

LOL

it ranks right up there with the consistent style of calling % "Modules"
instead of Modulus

really this new discovery tho - it is not so funny -
as an attempt to use it with 16F887 which has
pullups on port B
yields "undefined identifier"
the same happens if you use the goofy syntax
set_pulldown();

all the datasheets i have read call it pull up for a good reason - UP is the only direction you can pull the pin on port B

Neither of the offered syntax possibility
is recognized by YEE NEW compiler

i can get it done w/o this compiler "assistance" but
any enlightenment would be nice.

A few of the latest chips support individually programmable _pulldown's_ as well as pullup's. On these, 'up' is _not_ the only direction you can pull a pin.
These functions are only available on such chips.

and of course there is 'inverse' logic...... where '1's are low and '0's are high...

trying to please everyone for every combination of circumstances,chips, flexability is a daunting task

things were a LOT simpler with just a 16C84 on the board !

If you want a real head shaker download the Vinculum II IDE and go though the first 40-50 screens.....
