What kind of filesystem is needed on the SD card? I haven't been able to find that information in the docs, maybe I'm looking in the wrong place. https://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/pyboard/pyboard/general.html#local-filesystem-and-sd-card Damien if you're reading these, please add a few line abo...

Indeed, you could, by: a) reading "screen" manual; b) by following MicroPython tutorial which gives you that hint: http://docs.micropython.org/en/latest/pyboard/pyboard/tutorial/repl.html#mac-os-x I'm sure I read that- some time ago. However, when you're used to exiting the REPL in the typical way ...

I didn't know the answer, but found out that this is what makes the difference: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8632586/macos-whats-the-difference-between-dev-tty-and-dev-cu For rshell/pyboard, you definitely want to use /dev/cu.usbmodem* I don't know what the pyboard USB stack does with DCD. It...

What's the output of: ls -l /dev/tty.usbmodem1412 show? I don't use OSX much. Is there /dev/cu.usbmodem1412 as well? On my Mac Mini, the pyboad shows as /dev/cu.usbmodem99999 (where 99999 is some number). Is there /dev/cu.usbmodem1412 as well? Yes. What's the difference between the two? Should I al...

Well, you don't exit the REPL, except by telling the pyboard to execute something. You can exit from your terminal emulator (i.e. screen) using whatever technique that progam uses. But the REPL will continue to run on the pyboard until its powered off, or its told to run something else. Thanks. Can...

I'm able to get the REPL going using screen /dev/tty.usbmodem1412, but screen is really clunky. I've installed shell but can't get it talking to the same device. rshell connect serial /dev/tty.usbmodem1412 Connecting to /dev/tty.usmodem1412 ... failed to access /dev/tty.usmodem1412 Would someone help?

After connecting with the REPL using screen on OSX Mavericks,
I'm not able to exit as I would typically do with the Python REPL.

What is the preferred way to exit the REPL?

Thanks
