Hi,

I find that I often subconsciously shorten the '-U' option for
uploading the flash to just the filename, i.e.:

     avrdude -p m128 -U myfile.hex

Of course, avrdude complains that it doesn't know how to parse that so
I then slap my forehead and type out what I really meant which is:

     avrdude -p m128 -U flash:w:myfile.hex

Since I do this so often it's not even funny, I conclude the former
must be "correct" and that's the way I should have implemented '-U' to
begin with.  So I was wondering if anyone would have any objection to
me making the first case above be accepted and default to writing the
flash memory when only a filename is specified.  Or would that be too
dangerous in that it is making too many assumptions?

-Brian
