This simple example demonstrates the use of Altera's read-only zip filing system and GNU debugger (GDB) host filing system. The example includes a zip filing system (.zip file) containing three text files. The filing system is first programmed into the hardware design's common flash interface (CFI) compliant flash using the Nios® II flash programmer. When you run the software, it opens two of the text files in the filing system, then prints them to STDOUT.
