To start writing BOS applications BOS source code and mpsgcc free
C compiler are needed. mspgcc compiler can be downloaded for free at
http://mspgcc.sourceforge.net/
First of all mspgcc must be installed, then extract BOS package in an hard disk
folder and under Examples directory can be found some useful projects to start
using BOS. Hello Example illustrates an "Hello World" application and TwoTasks
shows how to create an application with two running tasks; these two examples
are good starting points to understand how BOS works because they are simple
and don't require external hardware, so can be executed on all hardware.
Optionally can be installed Dev-C++ (a free programming IDE that can be found at
"http://www.bloodshed.net/") and load
BOS .dev file to explore entire BOS structure tree easily.
Furthermore it is also provided BOS.sln, a Microsoft Visual C++ project that
can help understanding BOS structure (both BOS.dev and BOS.sln point to
the same source code, they are provided just for convenience).

In case of errors refer to BOS documentation introduction chapter (BOS step by step chapter) for common problems solution. Often all errors are solved adding mspgcc bin directory to system environment PATH variable as first entry.
