Dear Tom,

We have a problem with the syntax of 'ext4write'. For fatload, fatwrite, ext2load and ext4load the format is: command interface device:part system-memory-addr filename But ext4write is: command interface device:part filename system-memory-addr

Crap. This has been the published interface since May 2012, so 3 releases going on a fourth.

I guess we've got two options:

1. Break and correct the order.
2. Correct the order, add a silent fixup if filename and address are

backwards and note we'll remove that in a few releases.

My vote is for 1) [accompanid by a big, fat note in the release message].

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
