[Coco] Tiny IDE controller...

Roger,

Take the time and learn it. It being one of the MAJOR tools, Xilinx 
ISE or Altera's Quartus.

The tools are VERY powerful, so they are complex. Startout small, 
learn how to navigate in the tool. Then start to apply it to your 
needs. Took me a winter to learn Altera's and my board layout 
software. Here in MN that is a long time!

Starting to look at VHDL now and Xilinx Spartan 3 FPGA...never know. :)
