gEDA: Icarus PAL Snapshot 20001122




I'm gonna be away for a while, so I'm making an early snapshot of
Icarus PAL:

    <ftp://icarus.com/pub/eda/ipal/snapshots/ipal-20001122.tar.gz>

And by the way, Icarus PAL now has a home page:

    <http://www.icarus.com/eda/ipal/index.html>

The libipal library has gained access to more structural information
about the device, including enable SOPs. It is also now possible to
lookup a SOP by name and by pin. Also, access to sop fuse positions
has been improved.

The toplevel makefiles were changed to use $(MAKE) instead of make.
There are a few other niggling makefile fixes as well.

ipalrev and ipaledit now both take the -p flag allowing you to choose
the architecture for your device, and there are now two devices to
choose from. (both 22v10s:-)

ipalrev was seriously confused about inversions and the sense of things,
but that should be all cleared up now. It does a decent, if not complete,
job of decompiling 22v10 designs.

And finally, the PA file format has been extended to accommodate the
new library features, and PA files are now named according to a naming
convention for identifying devices.
