This is a lean compilation of the previous 4 articles.
The instructions are intended to install mspgcc4.7 devel version, mspdebug 0.22, and Eclipse CDT Luna on Ubuntu 14.04 amd64 from source, and to configure msp430 and mspdebug to work from Eclipse.
Good luck!!!
mspgcc
Will be installed in /usr/local/msp430

mkdir mspgcc_install
