Perfect.

I have an older JTAG adapter that has, IIRC, a 2x5 header plug

Awesome.  I'm definitely interested in the least amount of
pre-assembly.  I've been burning PALs and GALs and EPROMs for over 30
years.  I own several full-sized programmers, I just wasn't sure what
adapter this CPLD was happy with.

Thanks!
