BUG REPORT:

Microchip Technology Inc.
Page 23 of "PIC18F2420/2520/4420/4520 Datasheet" (edition "DS39631E") says
wrong things versus correct information in Help File. Here's the wrong info:

6. RCIO External Resistor/Capacitor with I/O
on RA6
7. INTIO1 Internal Oscillator with FOSC/4 Output
on RA6 and I/O on RA7
8. INTIO2 Internal Oscillator with I/O on RA6
and RA7
10. ECIO External Clock with I/O on RA6

But the correct information in Help File says:
OSC = ECIO6 EC oscillator, port function on RA6
OSC = RCIO6 External RC oscillator, port function on RA6
OSC = INTIO67 Internal oscillator block, port function on RA6 and RA7
OSC = INTIO7 Internal oscillator block, CLKO function on RA6, port function
on RA7

Or maybe Datasheet is correct but helpfile is not. Please fix this.
I used configuration bits as per Help File & they worked.
Also when i search datasheet PDF document for things like "INTIO67" it
doesn't even have 1 reference to it!
Then I discovered that datasheet shows exactly same settings codes as for
obsolete, older PIC18F1220

Looks like someone at Microchip FORGOT to update datasheet to reflect
correct settins for newer PIC18F4420 or (2420, 2520).
Now back to removing coffee enema.

Stan,

can you come back in the house and take the garbage out? I get annoyed when
you go to the garage and use the computer. I also need sex. I can't stand
those 30 seconds you give me.

I am frustrated.
