#98362 - caveats of using terminal
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Of course there are caveats when using the terminal for programming. Sometimes, the protocol is somewhat more complicated that one would expect and the uploading program (FM/FLIP/WSD/whatever) works up the details.

A classical example is for the Temic/Atmel RD2s, where the data chunk contained in one intelhex record must be within a single block aligned to 128 bytes. It is documented, but it is so easy to miss when one reads the datasheet... Intelhex files coming from assembling/compiling usually don't fulfill this... I use bin2hex and hex2bin utilities to adjust/align the hexfile.
