Factory floor is something I hadn't been thinking about. That puts an entirely different twist on it in my mind. For that environment I would argue that you would want to be able to customize the gui at least to the extent of turning off stuff that isn't needed. At minimum, a configuration file (XML again?) that presets certain options, and/or grays out certain options. Maybe you need multiple configuration files, so the user (factory tech) is presented with a menu of product names/numbers and the gui gets preset according to that product definition file.
Avrdude on rails.
Besides, it seems that it is a difficult challenge. There have been several people who have tried to build a GUI for avrdude and have failed for one reason or another. I'm beginning to think that it can't be done. ;-)
I've seen that fly before, and this fish is too smart :) Tie on another one. -dave _______________________________________________ avrdude-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avrdude-dev
