Yes, as InpOut32.dll, available as InpOutX64.dll for a 64-bit version  
of avrdude, enables redirection of bit-banging to any hardware, not  
only the parallel port but also USB-ParallelPrinter converters,  
without installing a global exception handler (that can do the same  
job but much slower). InpOut32 is more flexible than using giveio.sys  
but is a bit slower.
Moreover, true parallel ports are IMHO still available on docking  
stations and industrial PCs.
