The FPGA can be reprogrammed using the Actel FlashPro software
and hardware.

The Flash memory on the board can be programmed via JTAG. This
requires a BSDL file to describe the JTAG chain configuration and
a configuration file that describes the connection between the FPGA
and the Flash memory.

Flash configuration file for the 41CL board (.topflash)
Downloading to the 41CL needs a program to transfer data from the
PC. Raymond Wiker wrote this .NET program for just this purpose.
Compile the program (using your path and version):
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\csc.exe /t:exe CLWriter.cs
CLWriter source (.cs)
Antti Louko wrote these Python scripts for uploading and downloading
when using Linux. The data is read and written in hex for easy post-
processing, which means you can't use a .rom file directly.
./write1.py /dev/ttyUSB0 4800 < Hex-file.hex
./read1.py -f Output-file.hex /dev/ttyUSB0 9600
