Hi,

I would use hyper term to communicate to the debug monitor code, which
is efectively what I'm writing.

There's no way I'm going to be repeating the excellent work done on
GPSIM. When I'm back in the UK (working in Canada for a few months) and
I have access to my Linux box I will be using GPSIM that's for sure.

Cheers
Mark




If you're just learning PIC assembler, then this would be a nice *big*
project. gpsim has over 60,000 lines of code and it's still not done.
Perhaps only 20,000 or so are just simulation related and perhaps only a
fraction (50%?) of that would be needed in a gdb port. Of course, if you
just wanted the very basic (instruction emulation) then maybe only 3000
would be all you need to write. No matter how you slice it, this is not
a little project. BTW, why would you want to use hyper term?

Just for grins, gdb-5.2 for the arm-elf tools weighs in at 340,000 lines
of code! Of course, not all of that was created for the ARM port. But I
suppose you'd have to sift through a good portion of that to do a new
port.
