I don't see any point in writing a script which parses some kind of
table to do such simple task. Adding a new interface is just a matter of
entering a few (2-4) lines to the inf file:
"{name}"=LIBUSB_DEV, USB\VID_{vid}&PID_{pid}&MI_00
Under 2 groups [Devices] and [Devices.NT]. The number of those lines
will be clarified in the answer to your second post.
So I think a inf file should be included into the tree, not some kind of
text table with scripts.
4\/3!!
