+spi_butterfly - parport-to-butterfly adapter driver
+===================================================
+
+This is a hardware and software project that includes building and using
+a parallel port adapter cable, together with an "AVR Butterfly" to run
+firmware for user interfacing and/or sensors.  A Butterfly is a $US20
+battery powered card with an AVR microcontroller and lots of goodies:
+sensors, LCD, flash, toggle stick, and more.  You can use AVR-GCC to
+develop firmware for this, and flash it using this adapter cable.
+
+You can make this adapter from an old printer cable and solder things
+directly to the Butterfly.  Or (if you have the parts and skills) you
+can come up with something fancier, providing ciruit protection to the
+Butterfly and the printer port, or with a better power supply than two
+signal pins from the printer port.
+
+
+The first cable connections will hook Linux up to one SPI bus, with the
+AVR and a DataFlash chip; and to the AVR reset line.  This is all you
+need to reflash the firmware, and the pins are the standard Atmel "ISP"
+connector pins (used also on non-Butterfly AVR boards).
+
+	Signal	  Butterfly	  Parport (DB-25)
+	------	  ---------	  ---------------
+	SCK	= J403.PB1/SCK	= pin 2/D0
+	RESET	= J403.nRST	= pin 3/D1
+	VCC	= J403.VCC_EXT	= pin 8/D6
+	MOSI	= J403.PB2/MOSI	= pin 9/D7
+	MISO	= J403.PB3/MISO	= pin 11/S7,nBUSY
+	GND	= J403.GND	= pin 23/GND
+
+Then to let Linux master that bus to talk to the DataFlash chip, you must
+(a) flash new firmware that disables SPI (set PRR.2, and disable pullups
+by clearing PORTB.[0-3]); (b) configure the mtd_dataflash driver; and
+(c) cable in the chipselect.

+	Signal	  Butterfly	  Parport (DB-25)
+	------	  ---------	  ---------------
+	VCC	= J400.VCC_EXT	= pin 7/D5
+	SELECT	= J400.PB0/nSS	= pin 17/C3,nSELECT
+	GND	= J400.GND	= pin 24/GND
+
+The "USI" controller, using J405, can be used for a second SPI bus.  That
+would let you talk to the AVR over SPI, running firmware that makes it act
+as an SPI slave, while letting either Linux or the AVR use the DataFlash.
+There are plenty of spare parport pins to wire this one up, such as:
