- HEX file loader
- Wrapper scripts to run mcc18 under Linux
- Documentation for all of this.

Questions: - Without an error parser, what exactly happens when there is a compiler/linker error? How does a developer receive feedback?
- Can one use IFI_Loader with this project? Other than non-W32 compatibility, why would you not want to use IFI_Loader?
- How easy will it be to finish the C18 syntax highlighting support? What skills are needed/can I help?
- How easy is it to go back and forth with a given code base from Eclipse to MPLAB?
- And is this project truly ready to go as far as compiling C18 code goes? Eg. what steps are needed, from downloading the Sourceforge project, to start downloading code to the PIC?
- What is compiler toolchain support?
- Does MPLAB support library/binary parsing? Or is this just does help with code completion?
Thanks in advance, and let me know how I can help/where you need it the most, even if it's just writing documentation. I want to see this working really soon.
