m4api now supports Mac and BSD, as it has been modified to use libusb (0.1) instead of hiddev.
$ git clone git://ram.umd.edu/bits/m4api.git
why not libusb 1.0?Quote:

Thanks,
Those are from `lsusb -v':Quote:

Awesome, thanks! Great work. Also, do you mind if I package this up for inclusion in LinuxICE (or maybe you could do the debian control/copyright/etc for it and I'll build and package it )?
I've added support for more programmer-friendly API calls; you can now get/set configuration values using just your standard system integer and float. There's also an m4Diagnostics structure that you can fetch. It includes all of the voltage and temperature readings in normal float/int format.
I'm checking out the debian packaging... (no objection to it).
