Altera USB blasters as USB-SPI interface with ponyprog

hi

a first version of the solution is available from its temporary home
at my brains download area
http://groups.google.com/group/antti-brain/files?hl=en

it does allow unmodified PonyProg 2.07c to use Altera USB blaster to
program SPI devices,
instrucions are in the download archive
its very raw version, first FTDI device is assumed to the be the
blaster
testing is done with U2TOOL in USB blaster mode, programming ATtiny45
succesfully

Antti
PS I double posted to fpga/embedded as usb blaster users are more
likely on fpga side
and AVR users more likely on the embedded side, and some may have usb
blaster
and may want to use ponyprog to program some spi devises

Hello!
It's a very interesting project, too bad it's not available anymore! :'-(
The http://groups.google.com/group/antti-brain/files?hl=en link is broken.
