I wouldn't discourage someone from doing it, but I personally don't see the point. The command-line is very easy to use, certainly by comparison to gcc/ld, yet we don't see GUI interfaces to those. Just code a target in your makefile and forget about it. Personally, trying to set fuses in AVRStudio is an exercise in frustration for me, even aside from that I rarely ever use Windows. I'd much rather just specify the hex value for the fuse on the command line, even if it means taking a peek at the datasheet. :-) avrdude -p m128 -V -U lfuse:w:0x3f:m Done. Code that in the Makefile and never worry about it again. That's what we do with the gcc/linker invocations, right? -Brian -- Brian Dean BDMICRO LLC http://www.bdmicro.com/ ATmega128 based MAVRIC controllers _______________________________________________ AVR-chat mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avr-chat
