MPLAB Snap support #17

The snap seems to already be functional, I am able to use it to debug without issue.

Just making this issue so that it can be added to the README

Thanks for creating this issue! It looks like this is the rare case where Microchip actually used the same name in MPLAB X as they did in MDB, so the fall back behavior of using the MPLAB X name worked 😅 I’ll go ahead and add it to the validated list. 😊

Official support for the snap tool has been added in v0.1.18

I also have access to an ICD3, ICD4, ICD5, Real ICE, and PicKit5 if it'd be helpful to test those. Just let me know what you'd like verified and I can do those after the new year.

I actually only use the snap because it seems to be the one with the least intermittent connection issues (Transmission on Endpoint 2, specifically)

Oh awesome! If haven't been able to verify the ICD5 and Real ICE, so if you could check those too out I would much appreciate it!

I haven't heard of the snap until now. It doesn't surprise me that it is more reliable see at it only does one thing 😄
