this is from an answer from the old mailing list.  As you can
see avr-objcopy is the program that converts between formats.

The copy of uisp (Debian) that I have does not work with my parallel 
port, so I use the utilities from this page.  I have to be root to use 
them, could make them suid root, but figure Jason's pavr project 
is just about finished and that uses the serial port, and will work with
the STK200 board on any cpu platform with a serial port, that uisp has
been ported to.
