This is good advice.
Whenever I target a new PIC device I create a hello_16fxxx directory
with a minimal hello.asm which does nothing but blink all IO pins.
I can then use that as a template for new programs, and sometimes it
is great to load that old hex file into the PIC to check if all IOs
still work.
(I have done some really cruel things to the PIC IOs but have so far
not been able to destroy a single one. :)
