RE: [AVR-Chat] Re: AVR Compiler: which is the best

OK 

I think we need to split this discussion into 2 sections, those who are
using an language for hobby and those who are using a language for work.

The reason I say this is like a PCB layout program, hobbyists go for the
package with all the included symbols and foot prints, where as
professionals tend to generate their own. 

With C, most pre defined routines have set IO pins etc, but you may not
want to have the LCD hanging of Port A etc.

The debate so far has revolved around re using code, who says ASM is not
reusable ? I find that I can go to an old project, and pull out modules
as is needed, and re use them, I have a description block for each
module which says what it is called by, what it does, what it expects as
an input, what it outputs and what it destroys.

There are LARGE amounts of ASM code available on the internet, and it
only takes a few minutes to modularise it, so it can be reused later.

Regards,

Kat.
