Link to Microchip datasheet

[rolfz]

As many functions and parameters have to be directly linked to pic register names, it would be very usefull to be able to open/link to the current in used pic datasheed.

I suggested that long ago. Have a button in the IDE that opens up a browser, and retrieves the appropriate data sheet from the Microchip site.

More generally, it would be great if we could to add our own shortcuts to a web page with the tool window, so that any datasheet or document related to the project may be linked by the user (the same way we can add shortcuts to external programs).

Here is a work around for the datasheet problem I posed yesterday,

If you download the datasheet you like most to a location on your pc, you can open them from inside the DSPIC complier using the tools function

->tools->options->tools, add

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader\AcroRd32.exe ...
C:\mikroelektronika\MikroC Dspic\datasheets\30f6014_70143B.pdf

this on one line.
I adde the function key Shift+F12. and do not need to surch in the file system for the right file.

cheers
