that programmers other than the direct parallel port connection can be
supported.

Add support for reading/writing ATMega163 lock and fuse bits.
Unfortunately, in looking at the specs for other ATMega parts, they
use entirely different instruction formats for these commands. Thus,
these routines won't work for the ATMega103, for example.
Add support for sending raw command bytes via the interactive terminal
interface. This allows one to execute any programming instruction on
the target device, whether or not avrprog supports it explicitly or
not. Thus, one can use this feature to program fuse / lock bits, or
access any other feature of a current or future device that avrprog
does not know how to do.
Add in comments, an experimental instruction format in the
configuration file. If this works out, it would allow supporting new
parts and non-orthoganal instructions across existing parts without
making avrprog code changes.

component module. This is intended for support purposes, so that I
can tell unambiguously what version a binary out in the field is.
Additionally, display a revision timestamp along with the version
number. This also is intended for aiding in support and is the Unix
time of the latest component module. Having this, should allow me to
do a "cvs co -D timestamp avrprog" and get exactly the source of the
version that is being reported.

First pass at providing feedback via the optionally connected leds. I
don't actually have any of these attached to my programmer, so I can
only guess as whether this is toggling them on and off correctly.
Also, enable and disable the optional 74367 buffer.

Provide hooks to support a buffered programmer, pin 6 is now used to
enable a buffer that can be used to isolate the target system from the
parallel port pins. This is important when programming the target
in-system.
Totally change the way the pin definitions are defined. Actually
set/clear pins based on the way more intuitive pin number, instead of
PPI data register, bit number combination. A table of pin data is
used so that any hardware inversion done by the parallel port is
accounted for, what you set is actually what appears at the pin.
Retain the old method for handling Vcc, however, because the hold
method is much easier to use when setting / retrieving multiple pins
simultaneously.

more modular pieces.
Also, accept command abbreviations as long as they are not ambiguous.
