About This Manual
=================

This manual covers the following topics:

 *  The components of the ARM Software Development Toolkit (the toolkit);

 *  A brief overview of each of the ARM Software Tools and how to invoke them;

 *  An introduction to the Runtime Libraries;

 *  ARM Assembly Language;

 *  Using the command line debugger;

 *  Using the Windowing Debugger (DOS and SunOS only in Release 1.6).

This manual is intended to be used in conjunction with the other toolkit 
documentation included in this release.  Examples of how to use the tools, and 
many issues which arise when using them are not covered in this manual, but in 
the <ARM Software Development Toolkit Cookbook>.

Detailed technical explanations of the tools and the underlying specifications 
behind them are also not covered in this manual - see the <ARM Software 
Development Toolkit Reference Manual> and <ARM Software Development Toolkit 
Technical Specifications> respectively.

It is likely to be useful to have a copy of the ARM Datasheet for whatever 
device is being used, as these manuals do not cover device specific issues.
