3 Terminal Mode Operation

AVRDUDE has an interactive mode called terminal mode that is enabled by the ‘-t’ option. In this mode, AVRDUDE only initializes communication with the MCU, and then awaits user commands on standard input. These commands allow, for example, to display and modify the various device memories, perform a chip erase, display the device signature bytes and part parameters, and to send raw programming commands. Terminal mode provides a command history using readline(3), so previously entered command lines can be recalled and edited.
