Hi Folks,

Matlab has a pretty good package for DSP coding approach.

Ver 5.3 supported DSP563xx/DSP56600 devices from Motorola-Freescale. Later
version of Matlab support TI and perhaps ADI. Scilab is similar to Matlab
and is free. Maple, Mathmatica are other commercial tools I see used.

http://WWW.MDS.com has some DSP and Filter design tools that support a wide
range of DSP's. 

I tend to use a wide range of tools such as SPW (Signal Processing
Workbench) on my Syn computer, Matlab and so forth. This really expensive
but check out Scilab. It can accept Matlab files through conversion process
and is free.
