   8 This directory contains scripts that help to perform certain actions
   9 that need to be done frequently when working with U-Boot.
  10
  11 They are meant as EXAMPLE code, so it is very likely that you will
  12 have to modify them before use.

  24 flash_param:
  25
  26         "kermit" script to automatically initialize the environment
  27         variables on your target. This is most useful during
  28         development when your environment variables are stored in an
  29         embedded flash sector which is erased whenever you install a
  30         new U-Boot image.

  34 send_cmd:
  35
  36         send_cmd U_BOOT_COMMAND
  37
  38         "kermit" script to send a U-Boot command and print the
  39         results. When used from a shell with history (like the bash)
  40         this indirectly adds kind of history to U-Boot ;-)

  48         "kermit" script to automatically download a file to the
  49         target using the "loadb" command (kermit binary protocol)
