Hi Steve! I'm using the FET-Pro430 from Elprotronic. They offer a free limited version on their website which allows flashing all kinds of MSPs using either the parallel port or the USB JTAG adapter from TI as well as using the BSL. It does not support serial JTAG programmers. The commercial version allows batch programming (so you can make unattended flashing from make by using command line parameters), the free version is for UI usage only. You can, however, specify a config file that can also contain the name of the binary (along with other settings, including the programmer you want to use, if you have more than one). Due to a silicon bug, the 54xx takes ages for the blank check, so I skip it and manually call the erase and flash cycle and the RESET after flashing. So it is three clicks (four with close). But it works and is fast and is free. And (of course) it is windows only :(
So unless msp430-jtag does the job again...
