Many thanks to all of you who have replied. I gather that there is a great deal of variety in the tools being used (esp. editors). For some (unjustified, I admit) reason I was not really expecting that. Anyway, further reports on tool sets being used are certainly welcome. And additional thanks to all who pointed to additional resources as well. Mike
What is your development setup on Linux (or equiv)?

These are OSless designs.I keep forgetting that CrossWorks works on linux. That's the only commercial toolset that works on linux, I believe? Eric

For > some (unjustified, I admit) reason I was not really expecting that.I'll be porting my open source EmbeddedGNU IDE to linux as time allows. I'll use the same syntax highlighting editor component used by MonoDevelop. Once of the unique niches I'll be supporting is the use of Java for small target devices - in addition to gcc, of course. NanoVM for the AVR devices has gotten my attention. I'm amazed at what they can do to stick an OOP program into an 8K flash device with 1K or RAM. Surely we can take that a lot further with 128K of flash ... A good commercial editor for linux is SlickEdit. Eric

I currently use gcc for both, but should I ever need a commercial toolchain/debugger Rowley is probably the first place I'd look. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow! ... I think I'd at better go back to my DESK visi.com and toy with a few common MISAPPREHENSIONS ...

I'm not specifically aware of any other cross- development toolchain that runs on Linux that is not gcc-based.

IIRC, Crossworks for other architectures use Rowley compilers. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow! The PILLSBURY DOUGHBOY at is CRYING for an END to visi.com BURT REYNOLDS movies!!
