Download Pic C Compiler
The CCS Download Manager automatically checks the CCS website and notifies you if there is a new version of the CCS C Compiler. If a new version is available, it downloads and installs to keep your compiler up-to-date. This is an ongoing attempt to produce a set of libraries for C compilers used to generate code for low-resource microcontrollers, initially Microchip PIC devices and Hi-Tech's PICC Lite compiler. The code is adaptable to other compilers and devices.

I am looking for a free, and possibly open source C compiler for PIC. I might go without C, but I would like to get both options.
There are various compilers out there, but since I have never done PIC development before, I am looking for user experience and advice. Phase shifting transformer operation. I am targetting the PIC16F88x family

Try SDCC - an open source Small Device C Compiler
I used it for small project during school and it worked great.
YadaYadaI am mentioning the PIC C compilers here, which are best when it comes to PIC Microcontroller Programming.
- MPLAB C18 Compiler
- MikroC Pro for PIC
- CCS Compiler for PIC
You can read more about them on this post Top 3 PIC C Compiler, they have given a comparison between these 3 PIC Compilers i.e. there advantages and disadvantages.
David CullenMikroelektronika has a series of compilers, including Pascal and C with very good libraries for most of the stuff you'll need, such as CompactFlash, USB, LCD and etc.
Free offline 500 rummy. It's not free, but the free version has enough juice to allow you do to most of the basic stuff.
Padu MerlotiPadu MerlotiI recently got started with PIC c programming, and had some success with the lite version (free, but not open-source) of the Hi-Tech C compiler. I was using the PIC16F690 so it should work well for you too.
You can download the compiler here:
Have you seen the sourceboost c compiler? This isn't open source but there is a free cost version details here. It seems to work very well.
