Re: [myhdl-list] A module that connects signals if names match

[Ben R. <be...@re...>]

That makes sense.  So when I'm experimenting with things like this, I can
write a generic modules using interfaces, but when testing it, wrap it with
an explicit module so that I don't have any interfaces in my top-level.
Thanks again for your help.

Cheers,
Ben
