[avrdude-dev] Possible bug in S-record output

[Tom Harris]

Greetings,

I am using avrdude 4.1.0 with the ATmega8 and an STK500 programmer. I was
programming the lfuse and hfuse registers when I noticed the following.

The command "avrdude -pm8 -cstk500 -mlfuse -o- -fi" results in a correctly
formatted Intel format hex file. The same command with "-fs" (Motorola
format) results in a file containing the single line "S9030000FC", which
does not contain any data. This looks like a bug to me. I have not tried
dumping the contents of Flash to Motorola format.

Thanks for avrdude by the way, it does everything I want and I didn't need
to read the manual to use it.
