I think any external tool can be run through Eclipse

For example, you can do the following Menu sequence:
Run -> External Tools -> External Tools Configurations
Then add in whatever is needed to setup the tool.

You can also use "Ant" which could contain what the makefile contains (or call make itself, although that might be weird)

It's just tightening up the integration thats difficult.
Where I've been focusing lately is on a custom Editor, and its integration with a Builder/Nature/Marker system so that when I run CA65 I'll get better syntax highlighting, error display, etc..


We'll see how it goes. I actually don't like Eclipse, but I do like it's potential so I'm willing to make the effort to try and get to know it.
