support for arduino pro micro

no idea if it's the same as the sparkfun promicro, but i tried running the USART example on mine and it doesn't work :(

also, it's probably worth mentioning that in order to access the serial, i have to unplug it and plug it back in again to get the board's serial port to show up again.

The Arduino Pro Micro has an ATmega32U4 microcontroller which speaks USB directly instead of having a UART connected to a separate UART-to-USB chip.

You either have to connect a separate UART-to-USB to the RX/TX pins of the Arduino Pro Micro or do your own USB-serial on the ATmega32U4. The latter is very involved, see #40 and #572.
