If you go with a PIC anyway, google around for the No-Parts PIC Programmer circuit and software, but you'll still need a compiler unless you want to learn to do this in assembly, which is doable, but not as easy as C. If you go the AVR route feel feel to PM me with any questions I'll do my best to answer them.

I have to admit that the 16F series are hard to program in C(no free compilers) but for the 18F series you can just use the MPLAB with C18. Then you can use the RC code as a guide and even use Kevin Watson's codes without too much modification.
