Sorry, I have to learn to post messages as plaint-text and not as html!

It is not possible to match the private table to the table used by other 
interfaces, because the code can only send 5 or 10 bits. I think my 
patch (including the optimization) brings the private table closer to 
the table used by other interfaces. The best option is to change the 
code to use the same table as the other interfaces. I am working on that 
option, but I think it will not be finished and tested before the 0.2.0 
release.

Comparison of the TMS bitstreams:
from  to      std.    opt.  min.change
----- ------- ------- ----- ----------
RESET DRSHIFT 0010111 00101 0100001010
IDLE  DRSHIFT 001     00100 0100000101
IDLE  IRSHIFT 0011    00110 0100001011

Cheers,

Ferdinand Postema
