I have been happily using Microsoft Visual Studio IDE for developing for 2600 for some time now. A simple keypress (F5) sees an assembly. I can double-click on the error lines and see the error highlighted in my source code. I can switch to the emulator and view the results in <2 secs after making a change. Its quick and convenient. Anyone who needs help setting this up, just ask. A -- Andrew Davie adavie@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Museum of Soviet Calculators http://www.comcen.com.au/~adavie/slide/calculator/soviet.html Yahoo!
