here my init code in hi-tech c
if you want tx interrupt de-comment le line change the baud rate and and crystal to match
your setup
in hytertem uncheck hardware flow control, xon-xoff

I am trying to get the serial to work on my pic18f452 chip. I can 

print 

data to hyperterm from pic with no problem. But, I can not figure 

out 

how to get data from hypterterm to the pic.
I am able to print, here is a sample of my output:
First 2 RCSTA 144 TXSTA 160 First 3 RCSTA 144 TXSTA 160 First 4 

RCSTA 

144 TXSTA
160 First 5 RCSTA 144 TXSTA 160 First 6 RCSTA 144 TXSTA 160 First 

7 

RCSTA 144 T
XSTA 160 First 8 RCSTA 144 TXSTA 160 First 9 RCSTA 144 TXSTA 160 

First 

10 RCSTA
144 TXSTA 160
I think everything is set properly, but I am not sure.
Does anyone see any obvoius errors in my code?
Thanks,
Travis
