USB floppy controller for Amiga disks
This is a USB floppy disk controller, for reading and writing amiga disks. In
conjunction with the accompanying amigafloppy program, it allows archiving
amiga disks as ADF disk images, or writing ADF disk images back to disks, to use
with an Amiga computer.
The firmware for this controller is based on the ArduinoFloppyDiskReader project by Rob Smith (https://github.com/RobSmithDev/ArduinoFloppyDiskReader), converted to run on standalone AVR hardware (as opposed to an arduino) by John Tsiombikas.
The new AVR hardware is designed to be compatible with the original host
software, so you may use the AmigaFloppyReader or AmigaFloppyReaderWin
programs from Rob's project, if you prefer.

Note: The amigafloppy host program is not completed yet. And it's not a high
priority, since Rob's original .NET programs seem to work fine with wine on
GNU/Linux. I'd like to complete it at some stage, but I can't say when that will
happen. Contributions are of course welcome, but please coordinate with me
first. Until then, please use AmigaFloppyReader or AmigaFloppyReaderWin.
