Oh, yeah, I remember seeing that page now. I just didn't know that was
the "Ohio one". :-)

IIRC, someone associated with you contacted me a little while back and
gave me that link. I can't remember if it was Nathan Cooprider, or
another one of your students.

Anyway, my concern with the Ohio one is that it seems to be NesC /
TinyOS specific. One look at the python code shows this snippet:

----------------------------------
tinyos = {}
atomic_start = '__nesc_atomic_start'
atomic_end = '__nesc_atomic_end'

exception_names = ["__ctors_end-0x3a","ccitt_crc16_tabl","thread_task"]
----------------------------------

Is this program designed for general purpose AVR applications? Or just
for TinyOS?

Thanks,
