Description-en: device firmware update (DFU) based USB programmer for Atmel chips
A Linux based command-line programmer for Atmel chips with a USB
bootloader supporting in-system programming.
.
This is a mostly Device Firmware Update (DFU)-1.0-compliant
user-space application. This program was created because the Atmel
FLIP program for flashing devices does not run on Linux and because
standard DFU loaders do not work for Atmel chips.
