The primary sources of MSP430 information are the device-specific data sheet and user's guide. The MSP430 website contains the most recent version of these documents.
PDF documents describing the CCS tools (CCS IDE, the assembler, the C compiler, the linker, and the librarian) are in the msp430\documentation folder. A Wiki page (FAQ) for the Code Composer Studio IDE is available, and the Texas Instruments E2E Community support forums for the MSP430 and Code Composer Studio v5 provide additional help besides the product help and Welcome page.
PDF documents describing the IAR tools (Workbench C-SPY, the assembler, the C compiler, the linker, and the librarian) are in the common\doc and 430\doc folders. Supplements to the documents (that is, the latest information) are available in HTML format in the same directories. An IAR-specific tool page is also available.
