I need to turn 4 bits of port B and 4 bits of port A into a single byte, such that I create a byte-oriented data port for IO. Is this possible?
And how do I set up port B for IO such that I leave B7, B6, and B5 alone. The upper bits of port B is how PICKit3 converses with the host computer, and I don't want to upset that, though I need the lower 4 bits.
