AVRMacPack works well enough in Xcode but I don't understand Xcode so I wen looking for an alternative. While trawling through back issues of SERVO magazine, I came across a pair of articles by Dennis Clarke about setting up Eclipse with AVRMacPack and the avr-eclipse plugin. One of my recurring mistakes is the feeling that you can't have enough development tools so I gave it a go...
As a first step, the blinking of an LED is an essential part of development for a new processor and environment. I had read somewhere that the bootloader on an arduino was compatible with an avrisp/STK500 programmer. That turns out to be quite right!
After many hours playing with the new iMac, it is time to get something 'proper' done with it. By proper, I mean, of course, some microcontroller development. To start with, I have been looking at the AVR.
