I don't want to upset my existing Falch.net/Cygwin installation by installing PRC Tools 2.3. I don't have testing machine to try it out either. I'm using Falch.net right for Palm development, but I would switch to Eclipse in an instant if only it had working graphical GDB debugging(my main reason for sticking with Falch.net). The GDB text interface is just too cumbersome.

It does seem like some settings, partilcularly the multi-segment switch, would be better suited as per-project instead of global.

RE: Making my own IDE...
if you are going to write an IDE from scratch (rather than extending Glade for example), consider using a cross-platform GUI toolkit such as QT (www.trolltech.com) or WxWindows (www.wxwindows.org), or maybe write it as a Java application so that it will run on whatever platform you have. my two cents, David M __ Do you Yahoo!?
