I tried minicom last night, and it will probably do what I want, but not easily or neatly. There's a niche for a new application here, and I may be just the person to write it.

The programmer has a human readable interface, and dumps and receieves intel hex format. All I need to do is the equivilent to cat file.hex >/dev/Stty0 after issueing the relevant send command to the progammer. Actually I meant microcom, not minicom, so there's three possibilities for me to check out tomorrow. Thanks everyone. -- Richard Urwin Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?
