My question to Technical or who ever may know, can an interrupt be implemented on the raising of PIR1 flag (0Ch bit0 TMR1IF) as Timer1 overflows?

There is a good article in Nuts & Volts (May 2006) by Chuck Hellebuyck on USING THE MICROCHIP PIC TIMERS worth a read for those who are wondering what I'm talking about.

Peter H Anderson has a basic file on how to use Timer1 with Picaxe 28X or 40X. <A href='http:// www.phanderson.com/picaxe/t1count.html' Target=_Blank>External Web Link</a>

Is this something that could be added to the syntax, Timer1?

<code><pre><font size=2 face='Courier'>Timer1:
Timer/counter with interrupt
Internal/external clock
Preset up/down timer or counter (in real time or decimal)
Prescalers/postscalers </font></pre></code>

The beauty of this is the time/counter runs independently of the main program.
