applet.program.avr: improve CLI experience for memory arguments #624

Closed whitequark closed 4 months ago

whitequark commented 4 months ago

Before this commit, it was not clear that the filename suffix determines the file format. After this commit this is made clear in the text, and also invalid filenames are rejected at argument parsing stage.

Inspired by, and supersedes, #623.

Thanks for the review!

@collinmay Would you be up for doing some maintenance work on Glasgow? We're really low on people who can do that unfortunately, and I'd like to change that.

I'd be happy to pick a few applets off #599 (good excuse for me to learn a new HDL!), but can't commit to any kind of long-term maintenance. I'm super impressed with this platform and am currently pushing for my employer to buy a few Glasgow units and use them in our work. I'll make my best effort to upstream any fixes we might come up with :)

That's perfectly fine. I wasn't always skilled enough in communication to take advantage of this, but a few applets here and there can really make a difference at this point.

Nice! In my mind, we're just getting started, and I'm going to improve the software/gateware integration to be on a whole next level at some point in the next few years.
