---+++ AMC13 C++ Class

   * Handle more initialization options, esp bits in register 1: *[COMPLETE as of 08/16/12]*
      * bit 1 - S-link (DAQ Link) enable [ ==AMC13::daqLinkEna()== ]
      * bit 5 - enable TTCrx commands [ ==AMC13::fakeEvGen()== ]
      * bit 7 - enable fake event generator [ ==AMC13::enableTtcRx()== ]
   * Create method which returns the register address upon receiving the register name *[COMPLETE as of 08/16/12.*  ==AMC13::getAddress()== *]*

---+++ AMC13Tool

   * add command-line "-x <script_file>" *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
   * "rd" should display in 8 columns *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
   * add filename completion *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
   * "i", "en" and "enT" should all be synonyms *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
      * handle input link range, i.e. "0-11" and "0,  3-11"
      * add options to "en" command to handle DAQ Link enable, fake event generation "D" and "F" 
      * i.e. "en 4,10 d f"
   * too many reset commands! Reduce to "rg" and "rc" for general reset and counters reset, respectively. *[COMPLETE as of 08/16/12]*
   * ALL hex values should be displayed with "%08x" format (except status display cases) *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
   * read commands (incl block and FIFO) should display multiple columns (8 words per line) *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
      * *MODIFIED* if number of words read is <= 16, display in single column.  If > 16, display 8 words per line
   * should be able to read more than one time when address is entered by name *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
   * edit status display so that EVB counters (both 64-bit and 32-bit) are lined up as one, with the 32-bit counters having their upper section blank *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
   * All read and write commands should treat equivalently an address-name entry and address-integer entry *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
   * Edit the menu display for greater clarity and accuracy *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
   * Be more specific with error messages, tailoring them carefully towards specific command-line typos *[COMPLETE as of 08/17/12]*
   * Add comments to all functions in =Tool_funcs.cc= clarifying function, arguments, and returns

---+++ Status Display Maintenance

   * *Eric (perhaps with Charlie)* needs to in some way, shape, or form prioritize status registers for display (0 being highest priority, 2 being lowest)
   * *Eric* needs to add descriptions for the following recently added status display registers in =status.cc=, a copy of which can be found in =[cms2] ~chill90/=:
      * array =amc_sync_regs []= (line 139)
      * in array =evb_mon_regs []=: ="LSCDAQ_STATUS"= (line 173)
      * in array =vol_regs []=: ="V6_DIE_TEMP"= (line 157)
