1.10.0 (2023-06-18)
- Add --clean flag to auniter.sh
  - tells the Arduino-CLI tool to clean its build cache.
  - Sometimes it caches too aggressively and does not detect changes to
    third party Core files.
- Update --port {value} flag of auniter.sh
  - Allow none value to allow an ATtiny85 to be programmed
    through USBtinyISP instead of the serial port.
  - Allow glob such as /dev/ttyACM* or just ACM*.
    - Tells the script to select the first /dev/ttyACM* port that
      matches the glob.
    - Added to support the Adafruit ItsyBitsy M4 which seems to have a
      flaky UF2 bootloader such that new firmware is flashed at
      /dev/ttyACM0, but upon reboot, the device appears at
      /dev/ttyACM1, which causes lots of confusion.
- Add --delay N flag to auniter.sh
  - Some boards, especially those using UF2 bootloaders, take too much
    time to reboot, causing the serial monitor to fail with an error
    because there is no serial port ready yet.
  - This flag allows a short delay before the serial monitor is fired up.
- Update sample.auniter.ini
  - Update nodemcuv2 configuration to be compatible with latest
    ESP8266 core software.
  - Add additional boards, e.g. SparkFun Pro Micro, Arduino Pro Mini,
    Seeeduino XIAO M0, Adafruit ItsyBitsy M0 and M4, Teensy 3.2
- Support only a single board in a single auniter.sh command
  - Previously allows a comma-separate list of {board}:{port} arguments
    e.g. auniter.sh test nano:USB0,esp8266:USB1,esp32:USB2 SampleTest.ino.
  - This feature was never reliable because the USB port of a
    microcontroller would be randomly changed by the host operating
    system.
  - And the workflow of compiling the firmware, flashing it, and running
    the unit tests was far too slow, and would sometimes fail for no
    apparent reason.

1.9.1 (2021-05-21)
- Support -D MACRO=value when using --cli flag to invoke the ArduinoCLI
  using the new --build-property flag.
- Add --warnings all flag when using ArduinoCLI to enable all compiler
  warnings.

1.9 (2020-12-03)
- Add -D MACRO=value flag which adds additional C-Preprocessor macros
  when using verify, upload, upmon and test subcommands. Multiple
  -D flags will define multiple MACROs.
- Add --output filename flag (short form -o) to the upmon command. It
  captures the serial output of the microcontroller and saves it to the
  given filename. By default, the process ends after a 10 second timeout.
  However, if --eof string flag is given, the script looks for the given
  string and terminates just after it is detected in the serial output. The
  string itself is saved into the file. The --output flag could be
  useful in the monitor command as well, but it is not clear that it would
  be useful, so for the lack of infinite time, I have not implemented it.

1.8 (2020-09-04)
- Auto-detect the location of 'auniter.ini' in the following order:
  --config flag, the current directory, any parent directory,
  $HOME/auniter.ini, and finally $HOME/.auniter.ini.
- Add config command to print the auto-detected auniter.ini file.
- Add compile command as an alias for verify, because the Arduino-CLI
  binary uses compile instead of verify.
- Add mon command as an alias for monitor, because we often want
  to run the 'monitor' command after an 'upmon', and this makes it
  easier to retrieve the previous 'upmon' command from the bash history and
  just remove the 'up'.
- Add support for arduino-cli
  using the AUNITER_ARDUINO_CLI environment variable. The preprocessor
  directive in the auniter.ini must not contain a string due to a bug in
  arduino-cli.
- Add better support and testing on MacOS 10.14 (Mojave).

1.7.2 (2020-08-21)
- Look for a *.ino file in the current directory if no sketch file is
  specified for auniter.sh.
- Add --preserve flag to auniter.sh to preserve compiler files, to allow
  dissembly by avr-objdump.

1.7.1 (2018-10-17)
- Add SparkFun boards.
- Fix incorrect handling of run-arduino.sh errors, now stops after an error.
- Update instructions for installing 3rd party boards into the IDE used
  by Jenkins.
- Write better summary section of README.md.

1.7 (2018-09-16)
- Remove --board, --boards, and --ports flags to simplify the auniter.sh
  script.
- Change name of auniter.conf to auniter.ini because tools (e.g. vim)
  are able to recoginize INI file format and handle them better
  (e.g. syntax highlighting).
- Change the compile target from "board aliases" to "environments", where
  the "environment" is defined by a section of auniter.ini file whose name
  has the form [env:NAME].
- Add port_timeout parameters to the [auniter] section.
- Add locking and 'board' parameters to the [env:NAME] section.
- Add support for 'preprocessor' parameter in '[env:NAME]' section
  which defines a space-separated list of C-preprocessor macros in the
  form of MACRO MACRO=value MACRO="string value".
- Remove overly flexible --pref flag, replace with semantically specific
  flags (e.g. --sketchbook, --preprocessor).
- Remove --monitor flag from run_arduino.sh. Was already replaced with
  shell exec to a user-definable terminal program. Add example
  configurations for 'picocomandmicrocom` terminal programs.
- Add auniter envs subcommand which lists the environments defined in the
  auniter ini file.
- Changed name of --skip_if_no_port flag to --skip_missing_port.
- Add documentation of the recommended structure of config.h file to
  support multiple environments using both Arduino IDE and AUniter tools.

1.6 (2018-09-11)
- Support 'monitor' subcommand using an external serial port terminal
  (e.g. picocom).
- Add 'upmon' subcommand, a combination of 'upload' and 'monitor'.
- Add '[auniter] baud' parameter to control default baud rate of port.

1.5 (2018-09-03)
- Use subcommands instead of flags in auniter.sh to simplify the
  common interactive use cases.

1.4.1 (2018-09-03)
- Fix bug which disabled --locking by default.
- Allow serial port specifier in --boards flag to omit "/dev/tty" prefix.
