Adding a Software Application
Users can add new software application projects in XPS batch using the xadd_swapp 
command. When adding a new sw application, users must specify a name for that 
applicatoin and a processor instance on which that application will be run on. By default, 
XPS assumes that the ELF file related to a new software application will be created at 
<swapp_name>/bin/<swapp_name>.elf. This can be changed once the application has 
been created.
xadd_swapp <swapp_name> <proc_inst>
Deleting a Software Application
An already existing software application can be deleted from project in XPS batch using 
the xdel_swapp command. Users must specify the name of the software application they 
want to delte. 
xdel_swapp <swapp_name>
