3 * Output a (stream of) byte(s) in bitbang mode to the
4 * ftdi245 chip that is (hopefully) attached.
6 * We have a little board that has a FT245BM chip and
7 * the 8 outputs are connected to several different
8 * things that we can turn on and off with this program.
10 * If you have an idea about hardware that can easily
11 * interface onto an FTDI chip, I'd like to collect
12 * ideas. If I find it worthwhile to make, I'll consider
13 * making it, I'll even send you a prototype (against
14 * cost-of-material) if you want.
16 * At "harddisk-recovery.nl" they have a little board that
17 * controls the power to two harddrives and two fans.

27 * This program is distributed under the GPL, version 2.
28 * Millions copies of the GPL float around the internet.
