WxPic allows, with a PC and an adapter (programmer), to program a PIC micro-controller. It provides the following functions:

Loading a HEX file such as those generated by MPLAB the free tool from Microchip. This files defines the binary content of memory areas. The file data is loaded in buffers.
Mapping these memory areas on the memory areas (code, data and configuration) of a PIC micro-controller model to be selected in a list of supported devices.
Writting in the device the buffer content completly or by part
Reading the content of the micro-controller (if this is allowed by the device) either to compare it to the loaded buffers, or to load it in the buffers.
Reviewing, edit or save in HEX format the content of the loaded buffers.
And it also helps debugging a new programmer by allowing to command manually the programmer inputs, or to adjust the timings of the programmer interface management.

The unicode multi-language support is included into WxPic. At this time only a partial French translation is provided in addition to the default built-in English language.

WxPic has been tested with the PIC12F629 and therefore should work with PIC12F675, PIC16F630 and PIC16F676 that have almost exactly the same characteristics when you consider their programming. See the help for a longer list of supported (but not tested) models.
