+	This is a simple method to enable users to configure their own table of 
+	VID and PIDs.
+	Just overwrite entries in the table or add/subract as many as you want.
+	There may be a performance drop when using FT_Open, FT_OpenEx or 
+	FT_ListDevices when using this method. Therefore it is advised to avoid
+	excessive used of these functions.
+
+  Compile with:
+  $ gcc -fpic -shared -Wl,-soname,libd2xx_table.so -o libd2xx_table.so ftdi_table.c
