Why did we choose to use this GCC compiler anyway?
The main advantage is the “gnu”-public license and high quality level of
the GCC compiler system, which is developed and maintained by the
“gnu”-organisation. See: http://www.gnu.org/
But the MOST important reason to choose GCC is, because it is free
open source software!
Some enthousiast programmers developed a dedicated free software
package, named WINAVR (pronounced as whenever), especially de-
signed to program the Atmega processor types, which are also being
used in the YETI robot.
The WINAVR package contains the compiler program AVR-GCC, the
