Hi Mario,
Here's what I ended up doing:
Neither CVI nor Raisonance (my 8051 compiler) has a hookup for PC-Lint, but Keil's MicroVision IDE does. You can download Keil's IDE and for free and use it as a "base" for PC-Lint -PC lint will be using Keil's editor. Keil's IDE has a 4K restriction on code you can compile for free with it (it's used for 8051 embedded programming), but there is no limit to using the editor - you can do all your PC-linting through that. www.keil.com.
