Mike rar is a very common standard compression algorithm for Windows,
winzip can unzip it.
The header files are located in the inc directory in the IAR install
directory
After changing the main file for the project from the suppl;ied *.asm
file you then need to go to Project->Options and set up the options you
need, such as device type (first page) Assembler,, list files if you
want them, and set the debugger to FET not Simulation which is the default.
I'd also go to Tools->Stack and untcik all the stack reporting options,
they aren't really relevant.
The files I've sent give you a quick outline of a very simple 'wrapper'
for any program, just make sure you edit the "include" file names in the
SHELL module
