If you're looking for a tool to combine a bunch of object/hex/binary files into a single one there are tons of choicces. You can just use objcopy to combine binary chunks. You can use something like srec_cat available at http://srecord.sourceforge.net/ to combine HEX files. You can use objcopy to create an ELF file for each input chunk and then link them together. Personally, I'd probably start by carefully studying the "objcopy" man page. It's a _very_ useful program for anybody doing embedded work. Then go read the web page for the srecord project above. Between the two of them, you should be able to come up with a pertty straight-forward solution. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!
