Sorry if this is an FAQ, but is it possible to use the Microchip USB bootloader with Swordfish?
TIA,

Is that a particularly big job? Or better still: is it in the works?

The issue Dave has with ORG is that you have to do a lot to overcome other associated issues not first envisaged.
However an offset program start should be really dead easy, I see no reason for it not to be done.

I'm using the microchip USB bootloader at the moment.
I wrote a proceedure for doing this in
this thread.
In built swordfish support would still be really nice!

I checked out your instructions, thanks. That might get me through for the moment.
I agree that built-in support would be awesome... *hint*

Any way we can get a Swordfish developer to commit to a date for USB bootloader support?

Not at the moment - we are working on other things...
