Others have gotten it to work under Linux, but personally I think the hoops you have to jump through just aren't worth it.
So use VI then. On Wildstang all of our software people develop for the robot controller using vim and make. Since you can run the mcc18 compiler from the command line outside of MPLAB it is really easy to avoid it. My recommendation for people who prefer Unix-like OSes (I'm one of them) is just to install Cygwin on a Windows computer, and use Makefiles to build.

OK, i have a Mac with OS X and PPC Linux. I understand how that wouldnt work for obvious archatectual reasons. I also have a whitebox PC with Linux. Yes, i'l get VI for win32 and use that. You use make? I have never dabled with Make. You just wriet your own makefile and have it use the compiler as its compiler command?
See you guys in Novi for the kickoff!
