SPI support

[dhouston]

Henrik,

I suspect you're right but the page does say Built-In Commands for operations common to embedded development and the line I quoted above is included beneath that heading. There are I2CRead and I2CWrite commands but none for SPI.

I think it's extremely misleading and I'm disappointed. But, as they already have my money, my disappointment probably doesn't matter much.

PICAXE does have commands for both I2C and SPI on the newer chips with PLL so I may have to try that.

Of course it matters.

It's not obvious at first, but like Henrik said ... SHIFTIN/SHIFTOUT are for SPI (Serial Peripheral Interface).
