I have a question. I am going to try developing for the 770. FYI: I have previously only done C/C++ code for PC's and Mac's, never Linux.

I am wondering - is there a scaled-down version of the C toolkit that I can install on the 770, to code on the unit itself?

I figure I would only need the basic libraries and includes for now, to flesh out some data retrieval code, and the compiler. I can edit with the Notepad application. I figured the first applications would be like console apps on Windoze.

Later, when I feel good about the data part, I can add the other libraries to create the UI.

Has anyone done this yet? Do you know which files to include? I assume the basic ANSI C headers and libraries for Linux will work, but I am not sure, and I don't want to damage the unit.
