[Amforth-devel] amforth-uptload.py tool

[Bernard M. <bme...@gm...>]

Hi All,

I am trying to use the above tool to download some forth (.frt) files to my
target atmel128  based board.

When I try to use this utility (Linux box, standard port /dev/ttyS0) it just
does nothing, no error messages .. nothing, have to CTL-C to get out.

Some questions:

1. I use the utility as "amforth-upload.py filename.frt" (where filename.frt
is the forth code), is this correct,  the -h help returned indicates this is
all you do.
2. If this utility  uses the serial device /dev/ttyS0, how  does it set up
the baud rate, there is no facility in the script to do that.
(I tried using minicom to set up the baud rate for the port, then use the
-f(force) option with the script, but still nothing ....

Hopefully someone has used this utility can tell me what I am doing wrong ..


Thanks,
Bernard
