[edit] Introduction
gputils is a collection of tools for Microchip (TM) PIC microcontrollers. It includes gpasm, gplink, and gplib. Each tool is intended to be an open source replacement for a corresponding Microchip (TM) tool. This manual covers the basics of running the tools. For more details on a microcontroller, consult the manual for the specific PICmicro product that you are using.
