Development Tools for Electronic and Robotic Hobbyists

This site is oriented to providing hobbyists with pointers to software that can help with the design and development of micro controller controlled electronic gadgets. The software referenced here is all either freeware, shareware, or demo software so it can be tried with out investing money. A few of them are tools I've developed, but most I've found at other places on the web. Where possible I've included a link to the site where you can get the latest version rather than a direct download of a possibly stale version that I have. All CPU software development tools mentioned here will be for 16-bit or 8-bit micro controllers since there are plenty of Unix and Windows based tools for most 32-bit CPUs. My favorite 16-bit micro controllers are Intel 80x96 variants and the most popular micro controllers are Motorola 68HC11 variants so you'll notice there will be more tools for these on this site than for other micro contollers.
