Port pin identification

[jmgelba]

I might be missunderstanding your reply, but im talking about the actual physical pin itself.

Is PORTA.5 RA5 or is it the physical pin 5 of the chip? It has to be PORTA.5 = RA5, as PORTA.0 cant be pin 0 as pin 0 does not exist.
What Im saying is both examples of how to identify the physical pin number are shown in the manual, so one of them has to be wrong, and I believe its the first example.
