PSPLINK is an attempt at producing a loader/development application to eliminate the need to go
back to the VSH every time. It provides a shell over the SIO, USB or WIFI connection from which
you can load new applications, dump useful system information and then reset the PSP to start
another application. You can also access some of the features of PSPLINK using a simple on screen
console shell, which maps commands to button presses. The program mounts the USB device so
you can copy new executables onto the memory stick for execution or you can choose to use the
USB host filing system which allows you to access programs directly from your PC. It also
eliminates some of the boilerplate code necessary for executables by installing stdio and kprintf
handlers for TTY output as well as a built in exception handler, rudimentary debugger and GDB
server.
It is designed so that normal user mode applications can be developed as easily as possible, without
having to resort to loading first into kernel mode. While it is not designed for developing kernel
software it is fully capable of doing so, as well as giving you a more in depth understanding on how
the PSP kernel operates by allowing you to inspect much of the system in real time (such as
currently loaded module or threads).
