Re: [avrdude-dev] avrdude programing

[Weddington, Eric]

Hi Charles,

Avrdude uses a configuration file that contains information about the 
programmers and devices that can interface with. This configuration file is a 
text-based file and on Windows can be found in the same directory as the 
executable. The file name is "avrdude.conf". The idea is that you can add 
support for new devices (and/or programmers) without having to recompile the 
avrdude program.

You can use a text editor to add support for new devices within avrdude.conf. 
Typically you can start off with a similar device that is already in 
avrdude.conf.

Perhaps others on this mailing list can go into greater detail on how to add 
new device support better than I can.
