Might need little tweaks for the Windows and Mac platforms. +It's been tested casually on Mac, Windows, and Linux, and aught to work on all +three. To make and install, do the regular 'make; sudo make install' on unixes. +On windows just 'make' with mingw and do whatever people do with windows exes. -Usage example: - sudo ./micronucleus name_of_the_file.hex +Usage on Ubuntu: + sudo micronucleus --run name_of_the_file.hex +Usage on Mac: + micronucleus --run name_of_the_file.hex +Usage on Windows + micronucleus.exe --run name_of_the_file.hex -Binary file writing and program memory reading hasn't been implemented yet. +Raw binary file writing hasn't been tested much yet and is suspected to not +work. -Program sometimes sporadicly crashes and fails to upload the user application. User should unplug and re-plug the device and restart the application if such situation happens. I hope this problem will be solved in the future. +Every now and then the program fails once it reaches the Writing stage - this is +a known bug - but if you simply rerun the micronucleus command immediately, it +will succeed the second time usually.
