This is your fault for not knowing the tools

It will take days or weeks to learn the tools to develop a 10 minute program.
This is how I debugged in the 1980&#x

This is your fault for not knowing the tools. Harsh as it may seem, this is
a fact. This is why professional software engineers with the skills to
setup / use said tools get paid big money.*
It is very much the responsibil

Thanks, Ivan, for giving a plausible solution. My project has to be in
ANSI C and not C++. If Qt can accomplish that, I'll try it.

For a super-newb wanting a GUI, you can always start by
1) plugging in your board
2) visiting http://192.168.7.2:3000 or http://beaglebone.local:3000
(depending if you are on USB or Ethernet)
3) typing in:
void setup() {
printf("Hello world\n");
}
void loop() {
}
3) saving it as "hello.ino" and

Funny thing is Don, If he ( assuming He because of the adversarial stance )
took the time to read a book on the gcc toolchain he'd have figured it out
by now. But NOO, we must blame everyone else but ourselves, because

I'm probably going to kick myself for getting into this, but here goes
nothing.
Getting into *any *new community can be difficult. You're the new kid and
you don't know who's who. You wonder what's a sensible question, what's a
naive question, and what's a bloody annoying question. I think most
Tim, what you need to do is figure out what you want to do, and then start

good reference handbook. If there isn't one available, I'll just have to
