Notwithstanding the issues I had with TI in finding good information on 
setting up and using their tools, the rest of getting Mecrisp up on the 
MSP-EXP430FR4133 board was easy.  I had PuTTY already installed to talk 
to the serial port (even though that has some issues coping with the 
adjustments I've made to accommodate a laptop screen, the "do it" button 
is very nearly out of the dialog box!).  Mecrisp uses the "application" 
UART provided by the built in debugger (although the Mecrisp readme file 
could state this rather than giving pin numbers which then have to be 
traced on a hard to read schematic).  So it all just worked.

There don't seem to be any built in support for the LCD on the board. 
So I guess I'll have to write that myself and can donate it back to the 
Mecrisp base if I can figure out how to do that.  So now I need to check 
out some of the details of using the MSP430 under Mecrisp.  :)

Anyone know if there is a Mecrisp user group?  I wonder if it would be 
useful to start a Yahoo group for this if there isn't one already?
