Hi Chris,

That had occured to me, but my problem is that I'm _very_ short on
equipment. Apart from a FET430UIF, the only other debugger I have is
an eZ430-RF2500, which apparently only does Spy-Bi-Wire (and the
MSP430F1612 inside the FET only does JTAG).

I do have another JTAG adapter (a fairly dumb one) and I was thinking
at some stage to implement a raw JTAG driver for MSPDebug. If I manage
to get this working, this could solve my first problem, assuming I
don't get more equipment by then.

Cheers,
Daniel
