Scott,
Agreed. The abilitiy to coalesce hunks is important, as is the ability to
NOT coalesce hunks. Lattice currently supports both. Don't know about Manx
(that was one of my first objections to it, the inability to support scatter
loading). Also, unless they fixed it, Manx didn't allow some of the data
hunks to be marked for loading into Chip ram, it was all or none. That is a
serious limitation, IMHO.
I do think we are approaching this mythical standard, although everyone
and their brother seems to be expanding on it. I do hope that we can bring
this all together so the the tools work well with each other.
