First there is the gui. I presume that the request This line of discussion came about from endeavouring to make the PICList Beginners Kit multi-platform, including Mac's and OS/2 (which one of our newer members happens to prefer). My original suggestion had been to write the PC host front end in Delphi to run under windows, which would allow porting to Kylix to run under *nix. The other platforms then came out of the woodwork, as being nice to support. The suggestion was that Java may be the ideal method to make whatever assembler we use multi-platform, and gpsim is the major non-microchip viable code that I am aware of at this stage, hence the suggestion to transfer it to Java. It may well be that someone else will need to do the conversion to Jave (or Tk/Tcl, Python etc) from whatever package is perceived to be the ideal one to convert. -- http://www.piclist.com hint: PICList Posts must start with ONE topic: [PIC]:,[SX]:,[AVR]: ->uP ONLY!
