Erik:
It also appears that you are biased by your previous experience. I have found the Cygnal IDE to be quite usable as a "professional" product. The fact that ACC and DPTR are not included in the R0-R7 window is hardly cause to declare a product substandard. Particularly in this case it is just a matter of a metaphor that is different from an ICE product that you have embedded yourself with. Certainly you, at one time, also had to learn this ICE system and its pecularities (and all of these systems have them!).
