Announcing AVRDUDE Version 4.4
2004-07-22 by Brian Dean
We are pleased to announce AVRDUDE Version 4.4.0.
AVRDUDE (AVR Downloader UploaDEr) is a command-line program to program
the flash memory of your AVR microcontroller and runs on Windows,
MacOS X, Linux, and FreeBSD.
This release includes several significant enhancements including:
* Native Win32 support: the need for Cygwin has been eliminated.
* More accurate delay timing on the Windows platform.
* MacOS X now supported.
* Support for several new devices including ATmega48, ATmega88,
ATtiny2313, ATtiny13.
* STK500: ability to change the SCK frequency in order to program
devices with slow oscillators.
* Command-line switch to override the defaud baud rate for serial
programmers (STK500 and AVR910). Useful for boot-loaders and
other devices that emulate these protocols. Baud rate override
can also be specified in the config file (per-programmer).
* Various other bug fixes and code cleanups.

improvements.
