The source of the problem lies here: https://github.com/micropython/micropython/issues/6899

Thonny makes it visible, because it needs reliable feedback for its commands.

You could use binascii.hexlify (and unhexlify on the device) -- this will "only" double each byte. Or you could do what rshell does -- execute a loop on the device which reads from sys.stdin.buffer (https://github.com/dhylands/rshell/blob/e2820f679aa06d40c35dbd5c626a0402047e28f8/rshell/main.py#L1072).

I get a different error message.

This 403 problem is fixed in newer Thonny versions. Unfortunately RPi hasn't updated Thonny in its apt repo yet. I'll ask again about this.

Thonny 3.1.2 probably comes from the stable Debian repo: https://packages.debian.org/source/stable/thonny You need to first get the new version to the Debian Testing. From https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/thonny you can see that I'm one of the uploaders, but that's misleading -- I can only prepare the...

Do you plan adding support for installing from local sources (e.g. a local clone of micropython-lib)?

At the moment this use case doesn't feel important enough to me, so it's rather no.

I now published the tool on GitHub (https://github.com/aivarannamaa/minipip) and PyPI (pip install minipip).

So far Thonny has been using micropip.py by pythoncoder for installing upip-compatible packages to local disk before uploading them to the device. The fact that micropip.py supports only upip-compatible packages, has caused confusion among users, though, as several micropython packages (eg. `micropy...

In Thonny you can "Save" or "Save as" your script onto your ESP as main.py or boot.py

You may also want to open the file browser (View => Files), which shows you both local files and the files on the device.

From the screenshot I see that you have stopped your program with Stop/Restart button. This button, besides interrupting the program, does soft reboot for MicroPython's VM. That's why you don't see the globals defined in your program. If you want to simply interrupt your program then use Ctrl+C
