I have my preferences set for verbose output for both compilation and upload. There's a lot of red text that scrolls by like there are errors or something. Is this normal?
I'm using v 1.0.5-r2 on windows 7-64. Happens on xp too. I noticed it while uploading the "Blink" sample sketch. The "done uploading" message appears as expected at the bottom of the editor window.

Or something...

Normal-ish. It is sometimes difficult to eliminate all warnings.
Normally you'd aim to eliminate all warnings, but unfortunately the people who implemented the Arduino runtime didn't take the trouble to do that - unless you want to correct the Arduino code, you just have to live with them. You should aim not to leave any warnings in your own code, though.
No problem. I'm trying to move away from Arduino and toward AVR Studio (gradually). Had a big problem yesterday with getting the ISP programmer to work with a blank chip. When I finally got it all working, I wanted to try an upload from the IDE. Since I was still in "diagnose" mode, I had verbosity set to maximum and scrutinizing everything more intensely than usual. That's when I noticed the red text. I figured it was nothing to worry about, but thought I'd ask. Thank you.
