The good news is that we have cross platform software & and APIs for using the device without our software and writing your own analyzer plugins.

These products won't sample fast enough for decoding USB 2.0 high speed, but we do support low speed and full speed with the existing products and the new stuff.

That is good news, I downloaded it to have a look. A couple of suggestions.

First, try to use Linux friendly names in your directories, that means no spaces, no special characters. While its possible to navigate to

   Logic\ 1.1.18\ \(64-bit\)
It really is a pain for shell users. May I suggest logic_1.1.18_amd64/ which not only communicates its the 1.1.18 version but also tells you it for the 64 bit x86 architecture. the 32 bit version could be x86.

Second the text files you include would ideally have newlines (\n) every 80 or so characters rather than the one long line ending with an ^M which is popular in Windows text tools.

The SDK could use man pages for Linux users, but I appreciate that the API is pretty simple, PIO or stream, but I'm a bit unclear if there is device support for triggering? Or is that something the software is expected to do?
