 		 #179933 - GCC
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Jason Arkwright said:
Although I have no experiences with GCC but correct if I'm wrong GCC is a free compiler right?

Yes, it is. And it seemed to me to be quite popular on AVRFreaks while I was actively involved.

I don't use free compilers but prefer to spend £100 to £200 for a good compiler

I don't think GCC is actually bad!

I used the Imagecraft tools: http://www.imagecraft.com/devtools_AVR.html

                                    Hi Richard            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       the problem with AVR's is that they're ATMEL only            01/01/70 00:00      
                                          That's one general and one personal problem            01/01/70 00:00
