When I found that my Low Pin Count Demo board didn't support 18 pin PICs, I decided to see what I could come up with. At the risk of getting a "Rube Goldberg" award, I have attached a photo.
My "development board" is built on a perfboard and is set up especially for the 16F84A. (Yes, I know it's outdated, but there's a lot of code available for it, and I have a PBP tutorial book that uses the 16F84.) I built the board to connect directly to the PICkit 2. I also brought all 13 I/O pins out through jumpers so that they can be individually disabled. The 13 I/O's exit the board through header pins from the bottom of the perfboard, and plug directly into a solderless breadboard.
