Odyssey is a PIC microcontroller programming application for Linux. It was originally designed to be used with the EPIC programmer by microEngineering Labs but is flexible enough to be used with other programming hardware.
The EPIC Programmer is a pretty inexpensive programmer and it's easy to
build your own socket adapters. See
my page for more information about this.
6/11/2006: Visit Odyssey's new home.
5/29/2006: Odyssey is no more! I haven't done any PIC work in over a year so I've got to let this project go. The final release is 0.4 (ChangeLog).
4/9/2006: Version 0.3.2 is released with a compile fix for sparc platforms.
1/8/2005: Version 0.3.1 is released with some bug fixes.
8/22/2004: After a long wait, version 0.3 is released. See the ChangeLog for the details.
10/5/2003: Version 0.2.3 is released. I haven't had much time for working on Odyssey (or anything else) so updates won't be very frequent.
4/1/2003: Version 0.2.2a is out. This fixes a small bug affecting programmers that use any hardware inverted pins on the parallel port.
3/31/2003: Version 0.2.2 is out. Added support for some more PICs and added some command line options.
3/22/2003: Version 0.2.1 is out. Changes include a couple bugfixes and support for another PIC.
11/7/2002: Version 0.2 is out which fixes a few bugs and adds a bit more device support.
10/11/2002: Version 0.1.1 is out which fixes a few bugs. See the ChangeLog for more information.
