Anjuta is a nice programming IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for Gnome. I use it for C and GTK+ programming. Today I installed version 2.2.1 on my Ubuntu Feisty Fawn distro running AMD64. This isn't an extensive installation guide, but instead just a couple of notes on possible hang ups.

In this example code, I show how to use the GtkFontSelectionDialog and the GtkColorSelectionDialog using C/GTK+ and libglade. Both dialogs as well as the main window are in the gui.glade file created by Glade.
This is a simple Linux application using GTK+ and libglade to demonstrate some very simple dialog boxes. The application's interface is created in Glade and accessed using libglade, however, the dialog boxes are implemented entirely in GTK+ code since they're so easy to implement that way. These dialog boxes are from the GtkMessageDialog widget, which is a derivative of the GtkDialog widget.
This tutorial is intended for those people interested in getting started developing Gnome applications using GTK+. Specifically, it uses the Glade Interface Designer to build a the user interface and C/GTK+ to write the code for a Gnome application. The application will simply be a window with a typical toolbar and status bar. This application will be used in later tutorials to demonstrate various other aspects of Gnome programming.

Well, well, well, here we are again. I will be continuing with my new found appreciation of Small Device C Compiler (SDCC) and showing you how to handle interrupts using C-- specifically, the TMR0 interrupt. I will also show you how to simulate this using gpsim, thus learning how to set breakpoints in your code and use the stopwatch feature in gpsim. What's really great, is if you are new to PIC programming and are having a difficulty understanding the concept of the Timer module, interrupts, and prescaler values and what they mean, using GPSIM gives you a realistic visual understanding without having to build a circuit. Pretty handy dandy.

In my last article, Programming PIC Microcontrollers in Linux, I talked about using using gputils and gpsim to assemble and simulate a basic PIC program. After writing this article, I recieved an email from Martyn Welch regarding the article he recently wrote: Installing and using SDCC on Linux. SDCCs a free C compiler for several small devices, including the PIC microcontroller.
