+Description: Lego Mindstorms NXT Python interface
+ PyNXT is a Python module that enables developers to communicate with
+ Lego Mindstorms NXT bricks at a low level. It currently facilitates
+ scanning the USB chain for a NXT brick and implements the SAM-BA
+ bootloader communication protocol.
+ .
+ It comes with two utilities, fwflash and fwexec, which can be used to
+ write a firmware to either flash memory or RAM, and execute it from
+ there.

+.SH NAME
+fwflash \- Execute a Lego Mindstorms NXT firmware from RAM
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B fwexec
+.I file "load-address"
+.BR
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B fwexec
+is a program that takes a firmware image for the Lego Mindstorms NXT,
+uploads it to the RAM of a brick connected to the computer by its USB
+cable, and executes it directly from RAM. This is meant for use by
+developers of firmwares, so that they can test their code without
+causing wear and tear to the flash chip (and especially the region lock
+bits, which have a very limited lifespan).
+.PP
+The Lego Mindstorms NXT brick should be put into reset mode (also known
+as "clicking brick" mode) by pressing the button hidden in the top-left
+whole of its underside.
+.PP
+Note that
+.B fwexec
+does not validate the contents of the firmware image (how could it?). It
+only checks that the firmware image is smaller than 56kB, ensuring that
+it can fit into the NXT's RAM without clobbering the area reserved by
+the bootloader.
+.PP
+Further note that firmwares passed to
+.I fwflash
+cannot be passed to
+.I fwexec
+unmodified. To be executable in-place without being written to flash
+memory, a firmware needs to be compiled in a different way. Check the
+Lejos or NxOS projects for examples of how to compile a firmware for
+in-place execution.
+.PP
+Finally, note that since nothing is written to non-volatile memory by
+.I fwexec
+, the brick will reboot into the SAM-BA bootloader if you power down the
+brick. If you want to write your firmware to non-volatile memory, you
+should use
+.I fwflash
+instead.
+.SH OPTIONS
+This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
+options starting with two dashes (`-').
+A summary of options is included below.
+For a complete description, see the Info files.

+.SH NAME
+fwflash \- Flash a Lego Mindstorms NXT firmware
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B fwflash
+.I file
+.BR
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B fwflash
+is a program that takes a firmware image for the Lego Mindstorms NXT and
+writes it to the flash memory of a brick connected to the computer by
+its USB cable.
+.PP
+The Lego Mindstorms NXT brick should be put into reset mode (also known
+as "clicking brick" mode) by pressing the button hidden in the top-left
+whole of its underside.
+.PP
+Note that
+.B fwflash
+does not validate the contents of the firmware image (how could it?). It
+only checks that the firmware image is smaller than 256kB, ensuring that
+it can fit into the NXT's flash memory.
+.PP
+Once the firmware has been written to the NXT,
+.B fwflash
+automatically passes control to the firmware, meaning that your brick
+should immediately boot the newly written firmware.
+.SH OPTIONS
+This program follows the usual GNU command line syntax, with long
+options starting with two dashes (`-').
+A summary of options is included below.
+For a complete description, see the Info files.
