As snarky remarks go, that one was well within the bounds of acceptable discourse.

You might still be misreading this.  "Real" real men do whatever makes them most productive, without apology, but with tolerance for the methods of others.  I think here a couple of us have proposed a solution to your problem that involves the use of AVR Studio, but that doesn't generalize to the entire group being advocates of IDE-only programming.  On the ARM group, you've probably attracted the attention of some command-line zealots.  When someone makes a suggestion, that's all it is, a suggestion.  You should stir what we say into the melting-pot of your own knowledge and come up with a solution that fits your own needs and style.
