this is non-trivial.  The -loopback option isn't what you think it
is; it's a flag telling the downloader that the low-level serial
ckt has a hardware echo.  it's relevant to an earlier 6811 design
(the mini board), not the HB design.

this would require code changes to both the runtime pcode and the
desktop side.  when randy and i were design the IC system we
thought about this feature -- there may be the beginnings of some
hooks in the code -- but it was never implemented.

Hi folks,

We have been looking for a way to echo the printf()s on LCD to the IC
terminal on host computer (using 2.86 - freeware). IC has a -loopback
option, but apparently that only works for HB rev 1.5 and earlier. Is
there a way to do this with the new rev 2.21 HB? From what we
understand, the HB error messages are echoed back to the terminal, so
we're thinking that there must be a way.

If this involves a code change in IC, we are also ready to tackle that.
Any help/hack/suggestion is appreciated.

Thanks and have a great day!
