Mikael,
If you've got a good mailing address, I've got a spare SNAP I could send you. They've got mostly the same capabilities as the PICkit-4 except for the plastic case and the high-voltage programming feature. They run the same firmware (and every version of MPLabX has its own).
A nice thing about these little boards is that they're laid out with 0.1" vias to match up with our old bread-boards. They're basically break-out boards for chips that might not have pdips available with a usb power supply (not quite thrilled with the debugger or the C compiler myself). What can I say, they're fun little toys and quick to try ideas with. Do you have any interest in the ATmega-4809 for porting work?

Hi Craig,
I (almost) never used any evaluation boards from Mchip.
These are made by folks whose business is to sell evaluation boards and
demo apps.
I have own boards where I can plug in 20 and 28 pin PIC18/24/30/33 DIP
chips.
Glad I (FF) still has users.
Many go down the ARM and MeCrisp lane,
but I had never had the need for so much embedded processing power.
I like the simplicity of the PIC18 and PIC24 architectures.
Well, at least they are simple to me since I know them :-)
And I still build one off boards where DIP rules (bad eyesight).
Never tried MplabX 5.40 and from the sound of it seems I will not need
to either.
Or maybe one can use older mpasmx versions with it ?
I have not got around to supporting the PIC18Q43 chips yet. They require
changes in FF.
The flash writing is different, and the registers are moved to the
beginning of ram.
I have some of those chips, but PICKIT4 is required and I don't have one
(yet).
When I was looking for PICKIT4 it was in short supply due to COVID19.
BR Mike
