| Open Source Resources |
Description |
| EGCS |
The Experimental GNU Compiler System provides leading edge compilers for virtually
all 32/64-bit computer systems. This is an Open Source project which provides robust high
quality releases but allowing rapid development by opening up the current devlopment sourcebase. |
| RTEMS |
A Open Source RTOS which is available for many common embedded processors. |
| Linux |
A project to port Linux to ColdFire based boards. It boots! |
| ECOS |
Another Open Source RTOS which is highly configurable and target at deeply embedded systems. It does not
support the ColdFire yet. |
| Cygwin |
This is a development environment and set of libraries for Windows systems that allow them to
run UNIX software with minimal modification. This is what is used to provide the ColdFire GNU C compiler on
this site. |
| Open Source(tm) |
Open Source software should never be confused with "Freeware" or "Shareware".
