Hi, @mwm: I never realised that cntl-I is the same as tab, was just trying all cntl+key combinations. Maybe still good the inform the users that you can 'auto-complete' an empty line to get a list of the globals by pressing tab as this is not very intuitive (for me). @deshipu: I don't have a build s...

Hi,

could someone update the documentation regarding the function of the cntl+I key combination in REPL-mode giving a list of all the globals?
I think it is a very usefull feature that every micropython user should be aware of.

Hi Dave, Just what I was looking for, but unfortunately my board and the online board at http://micropython.org/live/ both give this reply, whatever string literal i give as argument, maybe because I have the lite version of the pyboard or is this a bug? MicroPython v1.8.6-273-g5efd650 on 2016-12-31...

Very interesting.
What hardware/chip are you using to generate the VGA signals?
What time does a clear screen/ the most time consuming operation take?

I have not been able to find a micropython command to get a list of all the modules that are included in the micropython firmware running on my board.
Brute force trying might be an option, or parsing the build configuration parameters, but I assume a more elegant method is available.

While porting a CPYTHON program to Micropython I noticed this difference:

MicroPython v1.8.6-273-g5efd650 on 2016-12-31; PYBLITEv1.0 with STM32F411RE
Type "help()" for more information.
>>> '%+02d'% (0)
'00'

Cpython will respond with '+0'
{} formatting shows the same error.
