Question: PICs with two configuration words versus one, e.g., 16F88 versus 12F683

[Dave]

Tracecom, Either way is acceptable, There are 2 configuration words for the F88 processor. There are even more for some of the higher end processors. I don't understand the question?

Thanks for the response. I know that both ways work, but I want to use the same style layout for the 16F88 as for the 12F683. I have tried several times to rearrange the 16F88 configuration in a vertical list instead of a long horizontal string, but can't get it to compile.
