See the blog post for all the details.

Note for Linux users:
GetDevInfo needs to be installed before you can install this – head over to https://www.hamishmb.com/html/downloads.php?program_name=getdevinfo or https://launchpad.net/getdevinfo/ to download it first.
An alternate way to make this easier for Ubuntu users is to add my PPA to your system (see https://launchpad.net/~hamishmb/+archive/ubuntu/myppa).
Ubuntu 16.04 users also need to install wxpython4.0 from here: https://www.hamishmb.com/blog/miscellaneous-downloads/.
