Code in PBPPI18L.LIB, can I ?

forget misinterpreted last post,
not sure if you saw,
In second post I had added the check for 16 bit =0,at top of routine, few lines asm for that

 LIST
ARRAYREADTO movf R6, F                       ; Check for no chars left in array    hi & low R6
                     bcf STATUS, C                   ; Preset for timed out (C clear)   
                     btfsc STATUS, Z          ; Set "Z" if LOW "Reg" == 0
                     movf  R6+1, F    
                     bz    arrayreaddone               ; No chars left
                     movf   R6, F                   
            btfsc  STATUS, Z      ;decrement high and low
           decf  R6+1, F         ;If Low byte is Zero, Decrement High
                      decf    R6, F                          ; Count down the characters left and fall through to ARRAYREAD  

NOLISTARRAYREAD_USED = 1    
endif

hard to format text in code window.

OK, and you can forget my misinterpreted last post too.
After further testing, your changes do work as advertised. My test was flawed.

Back to the redundant code question, I think you can save 1 WORD by changing the second part to ...

;        movf   R6, F
        decf    R6, F          ; Count down the characters left and fall through to ARRAYREAD  
        btfss  STATUS, C       ; If Low byte borrowed
        decf  R6+1, F          ; Decrement High

It's not much, but ...

Don,

Would you like melabs to include your changes in the next update to PBP3?

[amgen]

By all means,
I would feel honored.

Hi, I just seen this post, but i already post my problem regarding array.0(word-sized-variable)
as this isue is similar for reading, can someone give me hint how can we patch writing routine
to have array.0(word-sized-variable) working, as now only byte size index works....

regards, & thenx for any kind oh help
