Re: [avr-gcc-list] OT: Programmers NotePad

[Gary Griswold]

Thanks, ALL, for all the helpful info.  

Anton, I found the EDN issue referenced, unfortunately
my equipment does not allow me to read the image on
the EDN site; could be my glasses, too. It was a good
clue, however, to my finding a utility, 2&1, to map
stderr onto stdout and thence to a text file.  I am
now running happily with 2&1(or 2-1, there is some
confusion), a new DOS shortcut on my desktop, some
batch files, and running Notepad++ (actively in
development).  

Now if I could only find the time to become a student
of Make, I might never have to drop out of windows to
compile a program.
