CoreChart
From FIRSTwiki
CoreChart was an icon-based development tool similar to RoboLab or the Lego Mindstorms Robotics Invention System, except that it encouraged a more in-depth understanding of the internals of the controller. It was produced by eLabtronics.
A special version was available for FIRST teams, CoreChartFR, which included support for Innovation First's libraries and the IFI Loader.
Code
CoreChart worked at the assembly level, meaning its blocks represented individual machine instructions rather than simple to understand high level commands. It included none of the abstraction of PIC C, such as function arguments or data types, a factor which led to its non-adoption and subsequent downfall.
Program
CoreChart itself was written in Visual Basic. It called Microchip's assembler and linker (which was included in the installer) to generate a hex file.
