#config...#endconfig

I usually try to turn off as much stuff as possible. I figure they cost overhead that I could use for my own program instead.

A config bit is either on or off, but it is still a bit.

I know, but don't features generate more code if they are active?

PWM, USB, etc.

EDIT: An example of unnecessary overhead:

ADON: ADC Enable bit
1 = ADC is enabled
0 = ADC is disabled and consumes no operating current

I rarely use ADC, apparently having it on for nothing would consume current needlessly (probably very little, but still).

The ADC is not in the configs as this thread was about.

But you you are correct about some of the "features".

Long time ago there was the idea of having an "auto" configurator maybe through graphic environment, for the chip that the user uses and some of the good folks here were trying to figure out how to do this.

I suppose that it was a bit of a headache and the project quietly was abandoned.

Maybe it is time to start it over again.

Is the IDE able to use plug-ins? maybe a external program that you can call from the IDE that will parse the device info file and list the available fuses?
