Yes but not the second version and also I don't even have a PIC32 dev environment or the unlocked compiler - in other words, this version is deprecated

Hi matherp, phil99

Firstly, thanks to all for all the help on this - very much appreciated!

I was using the Explore-28's only because I had a couple lying around, and because I'm quite familiar with the code.  I developed a Reflow Oven controller using an Explore-100 (which I am using all the time - published in the Silicon Chip magazine), and some reasonably complicated system code on Explore-64's.  But I'm not "wedded" to these.

Thanks for the tip about the Picomite option - I found the number of variants somewhat daunting, but the MMBasic codes look familiar (Geoff's Manual looks like the Micromite, and Micromite Plus manuals rolled into one, with a whole lot more commands and functions added!).

I see Silicon Chip have published a RP2350B development board - which looks good, but is probably overkill. Altronics here in Perth have RP2040 and RP2350A Development boards.
I'm guessing any of the above would do? My pin requirements are quite modest.

BTW - I was interested to see the Structure type added - I cut my teeth with Turbo Pascal in the days of DOS, and used RECORD types - a Structured Type - often even Arrays of Records. In Turbo Pascal, the WITH 'record identifier' could be used to allow the components of the Record to be referenced without having to restate the identifier name.  That was about 40 years ago!  I STILL think Turbo Pascal is a great, efficient, and structured programming language - but Windows versions will not run much after Windows XP.
