"Hot on the heels of the unveilings of Transmeta's Mobile
Linux and Lineo's Embedix, Red Hat Inc. is joining the
embedded-system fray with its Red Hat Tools for Embedded
Developers.
RHTED is an open-source IDE (integrated development environment)
for software developers. It uses any Linux operating system to
develop embedded Linux programs for most computing devices.
Such developer tools will enable programmers to port existing
Linux applications to Linux-powered embedded devices. The tools,
themselves open source, should greatly expand the ability of Linux
programmers to easily and quickly move into embedded-system
development."
