Does anyone know of a program that does about what Proteus does for less money? I have been searching and have found several that work with Pics but the only one that works with Stamps is Proteus. I would consider buying it if it also supported the Prop but it does not. I thought about creating my own but I know that would be a huge undertaking and I really do not want to spend the next two years writing code!!! So, if there is nothing out there maybe someone could make something!!! I can help, but have no idea where to start!

    It is indeed a huge undertaking. I don't think there's enough of a market for it to be worth the time and effort, particularly since the format of the Stamp's interpretive code is still proprietary to Parallax. There'd have to be some detective work as well in documenting it. The BS1 interpretive code has been decoded and described, but not that of the BS2. There are simulators for the Propeller's instruction set and for the Spin interpretive code. I'm sure they could be fancied up and made into a Proteus-like package with a significant amount of work.
