I have to say I'm extremely impressed with the ADS tools - never did get on
well with CodeWarrior though. I'm much more of an UltraEdit and GnuMake fan
to be honest. After stripping the installation back to compilers, armulator
and symbolic debugger (command line version) I have it down to 46.7 megs. I
wonder if they'd consider an ADS lite :)

I just found this on the ARM site though for education and non profit
organisations.

SDT 2.02u Free, but registration required (Windows 95, Windows NT/x86 and
SunOS 4.1.3)

might be handy for those still at uni ;)
