I don't see any command line interface to actually use this code.
How would I put this to use?
Here is the current "fatload" command line interface: fatload <interface> <dev[:part]> <addr> <filename> [bytes]
Do you prefer to change it to: fatload <interface> <dev[:part]> <addr> <filename> [offset] [bytes]
or to have a new dedicated command, or something else?
Best regards, Benoît
