Hitech microchip PIC C18 Compiler

/* This is a simple demo project written for use with
 * the HI-TECH Software PICC18 compiler. It may be compiled
 * and run on the Microchip PICDEM 2 PLUS DEMO BOARD.
 * Features demonstrated include driving the LCD display and
 * the A2D converter. 
 
 Additional files required for this demo are included in the
 PIC18\SAMPLES directories:
 DELAY\delay.c
 DELAY\delay.h
 LCD\lcd.c
