Re: [avr-libc-dev] Nice to have: XCK Definition

[Frédéric Nadeau]

The XMLs I have come from AVR Studio 4.16 build 628.

I forgot to mention, to overcome #define limitation, pin names that:
- Start with '(like 'RESET, 'RD, 'SS, etc) will be named N_SS_DDR
- Ends with +(like AMP1+) will be named AMP1_P_DDR
- Ends with -(like AMP1-) will be named AMP1_N_DDR

Comments on that?
