RedBoot fis_create defaults


I've been comparing my version of RedBoot to a recent version
that came with an Intel XScale eval board.   One of the changes
I made in my version is that when you do an "fis create" it
will default to using the address/length from the last "load"
command.  That allows one to do someting like this:

  load -h 1.2.3.4 foobar.srec
  fis create foobar

While it may not be much of a problem to enter the base address
and size when commands are entered interactively, it's a pain
if you're trying to automate the process via a script.

It appears that in the current verion of RedBoot the "fis
create foobar" command will default to using values of an
existing file name "foobar".

Would there be interest in a patch that used the address/size
of the last loaded file in the case where the file does not
already exist?
