#
# this is a collection of support procs for the target data
# structures. We use a named array, since Tcl has no real data
# structures. Here's the special index words for the array:
#       Required fields are:
#	    name    - the name of the target. (mostly for error messages) This
#		      should also be the string used for this target's array.
#                     It should also be the same as the linker script so we
#		      can find them dynamically.
#       Optional fields are:
#	    ldflags - the flags required to produce a fully linked executable.
#	    config  - the target canonical for this target. This is a regexp
#		      as passed to istarget or isnative.
#	    cflags  - the flags required to produce an object file from a
#		      source file.
#	    connect - the connectmode for this target. This is for both IP and
#		      serial connections.
#	    hostname  - the hostname of the target. This is for TCP/IP based
#		      connections, and is also used for versions of tip that
#		      use /etc/remote.
#	    serial  - the serial port. This is typically /dev/tty? or com?:.
#	    baud    - the baud rate for a serial port connection.
#	    netport - the IP port.
#	    x10     - parameters for the x10 controller (used to reboot)
#	    fileid  - the fileid or spawn id of of the connection.
#	    prompt  - a regexp for matching the prompt.
#	    ioport  - the port for I/O on dual port systems.
#
