In this tutorial, we are going to show how to run PyMite on Arduino Mega
The Arduino Mega board can be ordered from:
[Link]
1. Install tools:
A: Cygwin

3. Under trunk$, do
make PLATFORM=arduinomega
If it shows pmfeatures.h is missing, please check that you are using the make from WinAVR.
Correct the PATH to make sure you are using that make.
The following is the command to check:
$ make --version

4. The next step is to program the generated [Link] to the Arduino mega board.
You need STK500, and install AVR studio. Choose Device type ATMEGA1280, and fuse setting
