/****************************************************************** * SoftEasyTransfer Arduino Library v1.81 * details and example sketch: * http://www.billporter.info/easytransfer-arduino-library/ * * Brought to you by: * Bill Porter * www.billporter.info * * Lib version history * 1.0 Created * 1.1 Fixed dumb Copy-paste error in header file * Added a keyword file * 1.5 Forked lib into Software and Hardware Serial branches, I don't know a better way * added passing in of Serial port of different types * 1.6 Fixed bug where it wasn't clearing out the buffers if the CheckSum failed, * I'm good at dumb mistakes * 1.7 Fixed a bug where the receive function could block for too long and never process data correctly * Organized the examples to be Arduino IDE compatible * 1.8 * Now Arduino 1.0 compatible! * 1.81 * Made it more cross compatible. Man, They really made us work for this one. * * * * Limits of the Library * You can change the Serial port, * but the Struct size must not pass 255 bytes * * The protcol is as follows: * Header(0x06,0x85),SizeofPayload,Payload,Checksum * * *This program is free software: you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by the Free Software Foundation, either version 3 of the License, or(at your option) any later version.

Restart the Arduino IDE, look for the Library under "Sketch" -> "Import Library". You can also try the examples by finding them under "File" -> "Examples" -> "SoftEasyTransfer". All uses of the library are in the example sketchs. ******************************************************************* Library now has two versions, one for regular hardware Serial, one for use with the NewSoftSerial library making any Arduino pin capable of transfering data back and forth easily. See the examples to find out how to use the library.
