[avr-gcc-list] Fuses through programmer or through code?

[Micah Carrick]

Hey,

I'm moving from PICs to AVRs, and I'm not by any means a pro at PICs.  
I'm writing code for gcc to compile on an ATMega8.  I'm reading through 
the datasheet for this chip, and I see that selecting a clock source is 
done with a configuration fuse.  I understand that this fuse can be 
programmed using the programmer, however, I was wondering if it could 
also be done through code--that is, have the source code specify the 
fuses, not the programmer.

Cheers,
