DeskDebug. Though as far as I'm aware you can't use it with GCC.

Sourcery uses a "Via" file by default. I suspect this is fixable by the
Sourcery user as all the tools, tool chains, project type, code types
etc are completely customisable. However, it's not something I've looked

up on how to write makefiles instead.
