Suggestion for next version of the IDE

Jim Fouch

Any chance that we we could get a memory display·for how much program memory we have used? When I'm developing a project for the SX I use the Device window to see the Flash. I always have to scroll down until I see all "FF" then I have to convert the HEX into decimal to see how close I'm to the 2K or 4K Limit.

It would be real nice to see just a simple number showing me how much space I have use or is free.

That would be cool. Maybe a live progress in the toolbar or title screen?

Another one I had would be to take the online SXList delay generator and put it into a pop-up menu. Basically, you right click the IDE window and choose "Insert Delay..."

Then, it would ask:

How many clocks?
How many second?
Routine name?

If you provide a routine name, it would put it into a routine. If not, it would just plop the straight code.
It would already know the speed from the FREQ.

You can also see how much memory you are using by going the List Window (CTRL-L) as shown in the attached picture.
