It does tend towards the bloatware end of the spectrum, looks like it
was designed by committee, all things to all men etc and is complex to
set up, so I don't use it here. I like lightweight tools, ideally separate
functionality and find that editors that come with ide's usually only do
half a job. All I really expect to find is a good editor, compiler and
debug link to hardware. Anything over that is luxury, but really don't
want a load of features and "options" that just add to the noise and
never get used.

Have been having a look at the Insight gui wrapper for gdb in the past
year or so. Slightly unstable in the environment here (Solaris Sparc, but
definately usable. That and ocd provide a complete lightweight toolchain
end to end...
