DESCRIPTION
MCU 8051 IDE is tool for developing programs in assembly language and C languge (with SDCC) for micronstollers based on industrial standard MCS-51. It consist of editor with syntax highlight, auto completion, syntax validation and command line, compiler with support for macro-instructions (even macro in macro), simulator, scientific calculator, (rich) text editor for writing to do lists, hexadecimal editor and many other tools.

FILES

/usr/share/mcu8051ide/data/tips.conf
    XML file containing tips. (Dialog "Tip of the day")

/usr/share/mcu8051ide/data/mcus.conf
    XML definition of supported MCUs. Warning: MCU 8051 IDE cannot run without this file. Please do not rely on format of this file. It may be changed in future version without any warning.

~/.mcu8051ide/last_session.conf
    INI like definition of the last session.

~/.mcu8051ide/base.conf
    Base configuration file. It contains only three configuration keys separated by spaces, please do not rely on format of this file. It may be changed in future version without any warning.

~/.mcu8051ide/config.conf
    Main configuration file (INI like). Readable and I hope user friendly.

NOTES
List of supported porcessors is very short yet. Please post suggestions to martin.osmera@gmail.com .
