β¨ NAME β¨
IMSProg_database_update, okay, this is the IMSProg programmer chip database update script π§
β¨ SYNOPSIS β¨
IMSProg_database_update
β¨ DESCRIPTION β¨
Okay so, IMSProg is a QT-based GUI app and literally the main character of chip programmers π It handles I2C, MicroWire, and SPI EEPROM/Flash chips for CH341a, CH347t, and FT232h devices. It's a free EEPROM programmer tool for the CH341A device, built on QhexEdit2 and a modified take on SNANDer π
IMSProg is made of three executable modules, bestie:
- IMSProg, the chip programmer itself π₯
- IMSProg_editor, the chip database editor πΈ
- IMSProg_database_update, the online chip database updater that pulls from an external web server π¦
So IMSProg_database_update runs on the zenity graphical Gnome utility π Once it starts, it copies the downloaded database into the ~/.local/imsprog folder. Then it shows you how many chips were in the database before and after the upgrade. Iconic glow-up energy β¨
