flP5 is easy to use, easy to configure, and easy to extend full-featured PIC (and most of the serially programmed device) programming software.

Here are some key features of "flP5":
Can support all the parallel port programmers supported by Odyssey, plus the 3 voltages production PIC programmers (on parallel port), as specified by Microchips.
New programmers can be easily configured on the fly.
Can support all the PIC devices supported by Odyssey, here's a summary:

New PIC devices can be easily added on the fly, but, in the current verion of the software, they must folow the Microchip's specifications listed below:
DS30034D - PIC16F62X
DS30228J - PIC16C6XX/7XX/9XX
DS30262C - PIC16F8X
DS30324B - PIC16F7X
DS39025F - PIC16F87X
DS41173B - PIC12F6XX
DS39592D - PIC18F1220, 1320, 2220, 2320, 4220, 4320

What's New in This Release:
This release adds support for devices following the DS39592D programming specification: PIC18F2520, PIC18F4520, PIC18F2525, PIC18F4525, PIC18F2550, PIC18F4550, PIC18F2580, PIC18F4580, PIC18F2585, PIC18F4585, PIC18F2610, PIC18F4610, PIC18F2620, PIC18F4620, PIC18F2680, and PIC18F4680.
