EEPROM addressing

[Charles Linquist]

In the CCS manual, it states that in the syntax of the

write_eeprom (address,value)

command on page 194, both "address" and "value" are of type int8

Is this an error? I need to address EEPROM in devices
that have 1024 bytes of EEPROM. Is there a "trick"?
Can "address" really be int16?

[PCM programmer]

If you have doubts about what the compiler is doing (or is capable
of doing), you should compile a test program and look at the .LST file.
Here's part of a test program for the 18F8620, which has 1024 bytes of
data eeprom. If you look in the PIC's data sheet, you can see what
registers the code refers to. I've added them below as comments.
