I'll agree with you ... somewhat.  I like the command-line version, and=20
actually do this with gpasm under Linux.  Edit with "vi", compile with=20
"gpasm", and program with "pp".  There is a command-line version for Wind=
ows=20
that comes with MPLAB.

However, I occassionally go back to MPLAB IDE under Win2k because of the =
cool=20
simulator.

Cheers,
