The chapters are originally written for MPASM style coding (main.asm) for which I installed MPLab 8.76 from the Archive page.

Scroll down a bit to the 32-bit Windows section.
Version 8.76 is small in size, according to the copilot it is from about the year 2010 but very nice to play around with and it has nice debug features.
Details are given in chapter 4 how to create a new project >

How to get the program's hex-file into the microcontroller is explained here >
