This page is dedicated to the GTK IDE built for use with the Arduino Hardware Platform. In particular, it removes the dependency of the Arduino IDE on Java. However to maintain the multi platform status that the Java based IDE has, I developed this appliacation with Python, and the GnomeToolKit (GTK). Both of these run on all common platforms. As the IDE is developed using Linux, I hope to have it 100% bug free on *nix platfroms. I could test on a windows platfrom, however I need to fully implement all features I would like to have using Linux, before I even think about debugging the program for Windows. This does not mean that it wont run on Windows, but it means I havent tested it whatsoever. I can assure you that at least minor source code mods will be needed for it to run on MacOsX, and probably a good bit more work needs to be done for Windows.. The internals of the IDE use python, the command line is used to upload sketches to the Arduino boards, pythons builtins are used for file processing. Pythons serial module is used to access the Arduino via USB\whatever your using. The program was written with the intention to increase productivity, efficiency and to gain experience in GTK & Python. (and decrease downloading Java ;P ) Currently the project in a "working + stable" but NOT very user freindly condition. I will release RC1 as to get some feedback of other people on LINUX boxes. I do not intend to support Windows or MacOsX just yet. If I feel inclined, I might do this at a later date.
