This was originally written by Marc to update his XRF on linux
We (Ciseco) made some minor tweaks to get it to compile on OSX

To compile on R-Pi/linux
$ g++ xrf_uploader.cpp -o xrf_uploader
$ chmod +x xrf_uploader

To run 
$ ./xrf_uploader -d /dev/tty**** -f *****.bin


Current Uploader Limits: 
Any XRF/SRF/other radio sold by Ciseco after May 2012 can use this uplaoder.
The uploader cannot update the Boot-loader.


On OSX if you are getting stuck at opening device try using the /dev/cu.***** device
