Thanks for the info!
I'm not interested (at this point) in getting the data to the screen
particularly fast. I'd like to at least figure out how to create a screen with
a simple button and textbox and work from there.
Are there other tools (besides Eclipse) that I could look at for development? I
don't have anything against Eclipse. I'm just interested in checking out what's
available and comparing. I thought I read somewhere that some people are doing
all their development on the TPC itself, rather than using any tools on their
PC.
