First needs to "modern-up" a little. I mean, have you seen visual studio 2003 or 2005? It needn't be as complex as visual studio, just have some of the same features. regular c isn't nearly as complicated for the purpose of programming the robots.
Steve,

Just hold on a second... Have you even tried MPLAB? It already does everything you outline except for potential variable values (and it even does a bit of that).

It will even run your code in simulation with full watch variable and breakpoints. Do a search in last years fori and you will find a few discussions on the subject.

What you guys were originally talking about was what is called an in-circuit-emulator. That is what Dave was referring to when he said you would have to get access to the chip.

Regards,
