  Description     : Tools to handle the bitstream format of Lattice iCE40 FPGAs


Project IceStorm aims at documenting the bitstream format of Lattice iCE40
FPGAs and providing simple tools for analyzing and creating bitstream files. At
the moment the focus of the project is on the HX1K-TQ144 and HX8K-CT256
devices, but most of the information is device-independent. 

This package contains multiple tools needed to handle the bitstream.

The package is useful for providing a full flow for FPGA development in
Debiani together with tools such as yosys.

I plan to maintain the package in the Debian Science team just as I do
with the qflow packages that are somewhat related.

Cheers
