#141229 - WHY ON EARTH?
Responding to: ???'s previous message
what do you need an IDE for????

you will, of course need an assembler/compiler/linker, but why concentrate on the IDE?

Can't you figure out how to do things with tools that work instead of a 'package' where half is good?

What is "the Good IDE"? A lousy compiler and a great editor? An assembler with errors and a good simulator? This IDEiotic approach makes me barf. These IDEs force you to use stuff that, at best, is only marginally acceptable. How does the Keil editor match up to CodeWright?. How does any simulator match up to any ICE?. IDE 'interfaces' to ICEs 'fall apart' all the time.

PS there is, if you insist, nothing wrong with using an IDE, what is the problem is selecting what you buy based on the IDE. There may be brands out there with a glorious, easy, intuitive IDE which contains a lousy bug riddeen compiler - would that be what you want???
