[avr-chat] Using Microsoft Visual Studio

[Ron Kreymborg]

Microsoft Visual Studio provides some nice features when used as an IDE for
avr-gcc development. However gcc error messages have a different format to
what the IDE expects which prevents using a simple mouse click on an
error/warning message to navigate to the offending line in the file. The
following addition to the avr-gcc makefile makes the small change required. 

Replace:

$(OBJDIR)/%.o : %.c
        @echo
        @echo $(MSG_COMPILING) $<
        $(CC) -c $(ALL_CFLAGS) $< -o $@

with:

$(OBJDIR)/%.o : %.c
        @echo
        @echo $(MSG_COMPILING) $<
        @echo '$(CC) -c $(ALL_CFLAGS) $< -o $@ 2> errors.txt' >
CheckErrors.bat
        @echo 'sed -e "s/c:\([0-9]*\)/c(\1)/" -e "s/h:\([0-9]*\)/h(\1)/"
errors.txt' >> CheckErrors.bat
        CheckErrors.bat

Not the perfect fix but it works.
Ron
