JM 14 Nov 2012 - After "Playing Assembler" a little bit, and looking at the RS comments that says: "Of course this is no real assembler. The memory model is constant-size instructions...", that just sounded like how the PIC microcontroller is arranged [L1 ]
So I took a section of a PIC's working code (a loop that fills a RAM buffer for a later transfer to a LCD) and tweak Playing Assembler with a few of the PIC's instruction set.
the example shows a RAM buffer (from 30H to 3FH) filled with values descending from 30H to 21H. The real thing in hardware shows all the possible charactes a LCD can display.[L2 ]

I was just looking at simavr (for AVR devices, not PIC though) and thought it could be great if calling the simulation could be done from Tcl (Replacing Glut)...we could then construct nice GUI around that simulator.
