Bruce, thanks for your explanations. I uploaded first versions of the basic compiler support scripts (getvectors & upload hexcode) in perl and c to the files section. they seem to work fine on my linux machine but still need some cleanup. they should be fairly portable on unixoide systems... Another...

I will upload the files later this week. I want to add plain C versions. However, i've got a some more questions. (1) What is the end of greetings to look for before sending the first "command"? Is there any rule what line terminators will be used? For the ARMexpress and two ARMexpress LITE i have l...

Bruce, thanks for your help. The problem was my mistake, i didnt handle interrupted system calls while writing to the serial interface. The getvectors.pl and upload.pl work now and i can compile & upload under linux -- no need for VMware anymore ;) If you think the two scripts might be of interest f...

You should be able to run the lines out as fast as possible. I have seen baud rates of nearly 1Mb work reliably (IFF the connection i...

using some quick & dirty perl adaptations for linux of getvectors.c and upload.c, i was trying the linux versions of the ARMbasic compilers (6.22 and 7.20) and both seem to work well. the only problem is that when i upload the hex code i apparently have to wait approx 100ms after each line and addit...
