Since these aren't documented in the online help yet,
this is what they do:

   _GET_SR() returns the current status register value;
   _SET_SR() sets the status register from a 16-bit parameter;
   _GET_SR_IRQ() returns the status register value from the
     stack, i.e. the value of the status register before the
     interrupt was accepted;
   _SET_SR_IRQ() sets the stacked status register value.

I think they need the leading underscore in the names,
as shown above.

When I used these intrinsics, the compiler warned me that
"calling a function without a prototype may cause runtime
errors". They aren't prototyped in any include file, but
that may be normal for intrinsics.

I'm also now having trouble with include files failing to
be included. My project specifies the include file paths as
   c:\fw\inc;c:\fw\libmsp\dev
I have a file
   c:\fw\inc\rosiedef.h
which is included correctly, but it contains the line
   #include "netdef.h"
which should find the file
   "c:\fw\inc\netdef.h"
but instead I get the error
   "!E c:\fw\inc\rosiedef.h(80): cannot include source
    file "netdef.h"; invalid file name"
This error appears _before_ the line
"C:\iccv7430\bin\imakew -f ROSIE.mak"

Also I can't add that file to the Header Files
list in the project - I can select it in the file
selection dialog but it doesn't appear in the list
and no error is raised. I can add other files in
the same directory, but not that one. It is
read-only but so are all the others.

I also still have the clipped NoIce toolbar button.
My screen resolution is 1600x1200 but the button is
clipped even if I resize the icc430 window to less
than 640x480.

Regards

Kris
