MSP430 Development on Linux

For the last few years, I've moved as many of my programming projects as possible from Windows to Linux. This includes PIC32 programming as explained in MIPS Development on Linux. My most recent MSP430 projects like the Electronic Birthday Card, Kitty Salon, and some Christmas tree ornaments for this past Christmas were programmed entirely on Linux. On the other hand, my Tiny Calculator project, which started in 2018, is compiled with IAR Embedded Workbench running on Windows. Since returning to the Tiny Calculator is one of my goals for the coming year, I spent some time improving my MSP430 setup on Linux.
