-what's this?
-------------
-it's a simple example project for the MSP430 series MCU and the GCC port
-of the mspgcc project. the project contains a makefile and uses assembler
-and C sources. this time it is a software UART with Timer_A.
+timerA_uart
+===========
 
-this example shows the following features:
- - Timer_A uart, full duplex
-    o same pins as BSL (P1.1 TX, P2.2 RX)
-    o it contains a reusable code
