.SH DESCRIPTION
-.I s51
-connects to a cc1111 processor through a cp1203-based USB-to-serial
-converter board, using the GPIO pins available on that chip. It provides an
-interface compatible with the 8051 emulator of the same name (s51), but
-communicating with the real chip instead of an emulation. Using a modified
-version of the SDCC debugger (sdcdb), you can control program execution
-on the target machine at source-level.
+.I ao-dbg
+connects to a cc1111 processor through either a suitable cc1111 board
+or a cp2103 usb to serial converter board, using the GPIO pins
+available on that chip. It provides an interface compatible with the
+8051 emulator from sdcc called s51, but communicating with the real

.SH OPTIONS
The command line options are designed to be compatible with the 8051
switches the debugger from communicating through stdin/stdout to listening
on a specific network port instead. Once a connection is made, the debugger
continues on, using that network port for command input and output. The
-debugger uses port 9756, and attempts to connect before launching s51, so if
-s51 is listening on this port before sdcdb is started, sdcdb will end up
-talking to the existing s51 instance. That's often useful for debugging s51

itself.

.SH COMMANDS
-Once started, s51 connects to the cc1111 via the CP2103 using libusb2 and
-then reads and executes commands, either from stdin, or the nework
-connection to sdcdb.

+Unlike the command line, ao-dbg contains built-in help for each of these
commands, via the 'help' command. Most of the commands are available in a
long form and a single character short form. Below, the short form follows
the long form after a comma.
While the original purpose for this program was to connect the source
debugger with the hardware, it can also be used as a low-level hex debugger
all on its own. In particular, all of the cc1111 peripherals can be
-manipulated directly from the s51 command line.
-.IP "Starting s51"
-If the CP2103 is plugged in, and the CC1111 is connected correctly, the
-\'s51\' command itself should connect to the device without trouble.
-Note that the CP2103 must have the GPIO pins configured correctly as well.

+.IP "Starting ao-dbg"
+First ensure that the target cc1111 device and intermediate cp2103 or
+cc111 board are all hooked up correctly.
