I question though whether anyone would ever need to do this now or in 
the future? These days if you need to do this (commercially) then you've 
chosen the wrong MCU (or solution). Sure it's a lost art but so are 
Morse Code and calligraphy (as ordinary handwriting is heading towards 
for that matter).
