Has anyone been successful in using GCBasic directly with Pickit3? I edited the included Pickit2 setting under the “Preferences – Programmer” Tab and pointed it to the PK3CMD.exe file, but still no luck. Any thoughts? Thanks for your time.

If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
It can be done, but pk3cmd needs slightly different command line parameters so you can't just change the name of the file. The easiest option is probably to add this to the prefs.dat file, which should be in C:\Program Files\Great Cow Graphical BASIC (or similar). You can open this file in Notepad.

type = programmer
desc = Microchip PICKit 3
command = C:\Final\Great Cow Graphical BASIC\programmers\PK3CMD.exe
params = /P%chipmodel% /F"%filename%" /M /V5
You can also put this in using the Preferences window - just change the command line parameters to the stuff after "params = ".
