Re: [avr-chat] AVR on the Mac

[Randy Glenn]

I would suggest Objective Development's AVR MacPack package - comes
with both AVRGCC 3 and 4, which is good because 3 produces *far*
smaller code in many cases. You can switch between versions with a
shell script.

Releases of the MacPack track pretty closely with the WinAVR
distribution for Windows.
