Hi all,

Just wanted to say thanks for putting together all of this documentation!! I learned to code on AVR's when I took engineering courses in college about 10 years ago. I've used the ATtiny series on some personal projects since then, specifically the ATtiny13A. I am working on a new project now and have been delving into the 0 series updated line that came out recently. I ordered the 204 and am excited about the cheaper price and some of the new capabilities of the chip.

BUT, in trying to get some simple blinky programs going, I was using PORTB_DIRCLR |= PIN1_bm to try to set PIN 1 as an input and it was not working and driving me crazy! I was also wondering about the difference between the PORTB.and PORTB_ nomenclature. I also new nothing about the virtual ports. Your Direct Port Manipulation guide solved everything for me and taught me even more beyond that!! With this 0 series being newer, I was having a tough time finding anyone talking about my issues with DIRCLR and getting more info on it. Now, I made sure to use just the = assignment and my hello world blinky works beautifully.

So thanks to all contributors for your efforts!!!! I've got your page bookmarked now :D Appreciate the hard work!
