Hi Winterwolf, I'm not sure what you mean here. Are you asking about the environment paths that need to be set to set up avr-gcc to compile the code for the microcontrollers? If so that depends on where you put WinAVR (on windwos). Most the time it installs itself the root C: folder. Inside that folder there is a bin, and a utils folder, both of those folders need to be in your PATH to be able to compile from the command line. Is that what you were looking for? Humberto |

yeah sorry I should have been more clear winAVR installed perfectly but when I type 'gcc' into the cmd prompt it doesn't recognise it and I cannot compile C programs. Does that mean I can only compile programs for micro controllers and I cannot compile C programs, (like I also wanted to be able to write and compile C/C++ programs not just for microcontrollers). in otherwords does winAVR only let you compile programs for micro controllers and not general C programs? |

Correct, it only compiles for microcontrollers. |

I downloaded the "lcc-win32" free compiler system. It seems to work very well. Jim |
