fxload from Linux Hotplug project

Build Status

Imported sources of fxload project from Linux Hotplug project. Fetched from:

http://downloads.sourceforge.net/project/linux-hotplug/fxload/2008_10_13/fxload-2008_10_13.tar.gz

MD5 (/Users/wk/Downloads/fxload-2008_10_13.tar.gz) = 4477a2457f064228bef4a93ba2f21692

The master branch represents the project as is, from the tar.gz.

In the multios branch one has a fixed fxload, where I brought a "backend" functionality--an ability to pick a way fxload gets to USB. One can now pick LibUSB backend. On top of that, with LibUSB backend, once can also pick a device by specifying vendor ID, instead of a path to the USB device in the filesystem.

How to use

Provided is the description for the multios branch:

git clone https://github.com/wkoszek/fxload.git
git checkout multios
LIBUSB_SUPPORT=1 make
./fxload -B -D vid=0x03fd,pid=0x000d ...

Where vid is Vendor ID and pid is Product ID as seen in lsusb.
