Hello,

This is Annim Banerjee here...
Sorry if i have started a new topic over a wrong place!!!
if yes, then please place this in its correct place...

I am a clean/New to ARM. That means i dont know what all basic requirements are there to get started with ARM!!!

Platform i am having:

i got my development board which has a LPC2138 pre soldered on it.
Few GPIO are out for general purpose tasks...
Also got its programmer too.
I Am having Flash Magic.

What i am not Having: this is where you people can help me....

No awareness of what tools are required for start writing code.
NO LPC21xx.h file found under GNU ARM pre-build tool chain.
What?Where? is all about startup Code *.S ?
Is startup code written manually or genrated automatically.
What all terms / terminology required to know before all?
Is MAIN.C and any startup .S file sufficient for putting a HEX file onto board via programmer?!
Any Freeware IDE for doing development for the same...
A good tutorial, as setp-by-step, or even DIY sort of!
What more...

Also please , if possible direct me to any such place where i fit to go and get all my answers!!! I hope you all might have got the meaning of my words as described above.
Getting no good results over google / internet with my limited keywords!!

and sorry for asking soo much at once!!

Thank You!!!
