Details:

I love to use the terminal mode to look at the content of the EEPROM, the
data is very niceley presented.
It is so convenient to modify the EEPROM quickly/directly without having to
make a hex file and download it !

So, in order to extend the usefulness of this command, it would be great to
make its parser more clever/flexible.

For example we could type in one single command :

write eeprom 0x0000 "A string",0,"another string",0,2.456,-456.76,16036,-113

A bit like when declaring constants with the DB DW etc, in an assembler. The
more data formats the parser could understand, the more
marvelous/useful/practical/magic it would be ! :o)
