PonyProg Documentation

http://www.lancos.com/e2p/ponyprog2000.html If you want to use parallel port interfaces without run PonyProg as root you need also a 2.4.x kernel and parport , parport_pc and ppdev kernel modules. insmod all three modules before to execute PonyProg. If you want to use serial port interfaces be sure you have the rights to read/write the /dev/ttySx devices and /var/lock directory. With RedHat you may want to add your user to uucp group.
This is (going to be) a easy tutorial for starting out with basic AVR programming, and also a reference collection so that it sits in one place on the site The fact is, most microcontrollers are programmed in C, its a lightweight programming language that is well suited to the restrictive environment. You can also do many of these examples in BASIC but I doubt I'll have time to put up those versions Here is a tutorial I learned C about 12 years ago from a book that came with a CD and had lots of examples, I think it was "Learn C in 21 days" or some nonsense.

The AVR family of `micro-controllers' (uCs) have their own, non-volatile memory; your program and data are safe, even if all power is lost. These chips also contain most of what is needed to program them. If you connect an AVR to the parallel port of a PC loaded with the right software - a `programmer' - then PC and uC will happily talk each other through the procedure. Uploading a program to the chip takes just a few seconds and very little hardware. http://electronics-diy.com/electronic_schematic.php?id=270
