5.1 How do I customize Suite56 tools for my tasks?
There are a number of ways to customize your Suite56 tools. Customizations for each tool
are documented in the manual for that tool (e.g., Motorola DSP Simulator Reference
Manual, Motorola DSP Application Development System User’s Manual). To get you
started, here are a few customizations that other Motorola customers have found useful:
• Set a path to directories where you store input and output files.
In the graphic user interface, from the File menu,
choose Path, and then select Set. A dialogue box
opens for you to indicate a path to a directory. Use
the conventional notation appropriate for your
operating system.
In the text-based interface, use the
path command followed by the path to the
directory you want to indicate in the conventional notation appropriate for your
operating system.
If you are working on a project that requires multiple devices, you may want to
define a path with a distinct directory for each device. In the graphic user interface,
from the File menu, choose Path, and then select Add to add other directories to an
existing path. In the text-based interface, when you use the
path command, the
option
+ adds a directory to an existing path; the option - removes a directory from
an existing path.
