Fpgatools is a toolchain to program field-programmable gate arrays (fpga). the only supported chip at this time is the xc6slx9, a cheap but powerful 45nm-generation chip with about 2400 luts, block ram and multiply-accumulate devices.

this package provides a shared library for small independent command line utilities contributing to the fpgatools.
