An open source program for controlling the MiniPRO TL866xx series of chip programmers. This program exists because the manufacturer of the MiniPRO TL866xx series of chip programmers does not provide a program for use on Linux or other flavors of Unix. We who keep this project going prefer a simple, free, and open-source program that presents a command-line interface that allows for a GUI front-end if desired.

Compatible with Minipro TL866CS, TL866A, and TL866II+ from Autoelectric. Supports more than 13000 target devices (including AVRs, PICs, various BIOSes and EEPROMs).

It's even in the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/minipro
