Can we avoid the special case for tinyprog on darwin?

[zapta]

@cavearr, this is a question for you.

The general command line for the tinyprog progammer that apio uses is

tinyprog --pyserial -c ${SERIAL_PORT} --program $SOURCE

However there is a special hardcoded case for tinyprog on darwin which sets the command

tinyprog --libusb --program $SOURCE

Is this special case necessary? Can we merge the cases together into a single command line?

i'll try it . In osx always i use --libusb, the other command line i'm not use never.
Tomorrow afternoon i'll play with it in different OSs and try to find if is it possible reduce to one command.

Thanks @zapta!

What board do you use with tinyprog? I look for TinyFPGA BX and EX but couldn't find any for sale https://tinyfpga.com/

Hi @zapta , TinyFPGA-BX but be careful because the last batches has been solded with bad firmware. And the project appears very abandoned or unatended.

I buyed several years ago, now i don't know where you can buy. I know, people that i had been helped in summer to work with it, buy in the past Spring at Mouser.

I'm working in a patched version of tinyprog to work with old and new boards i hope have for testing during the next week.
