Data access using #rom statement

[future]

Does anyone have a routine to load these values to ram arrays? or maybe direct access?

It would be nice if we could access 16bit ram cells as 2 8bits to store 2 numbers per ram address, tables would eat half space.

In picbasic there is the CDATA/CREAD statement that does that.

In picbasic:

label: // address pointer
cdata 10,20,30,40 // these are stored in 2 addresses and accessed by cread label+index

It's an 8 bit processor only 8 bits per word 256 bytes per RAM bank. The ROM is 16 bits per location in the PIC18 series and can be accessed directly. Look in the help file for;
