I've updated shell.py to work with the latest micropython filesystem changes (/flash and /sd).

Let me know if you run into any issues.

make-pins.py is run as part of the build process. It takes several files as input: stmhal/boards/stm32F4xx_af.csv, stmhal/boards/stm32f4xx_prefix.c, and stmhal/boards/BOARDNAME/pins.csv and it generates the following output files: build-BOARDNAME/pins_BOARDNAME.c, build-BOARDNAME/genhdr/pins.h, buil...

I filed the following issue: https://github.com/micropython/micropython/issues/795

OK, I just tried to sit down with the datasheet and figure out how all this stuff reconciles, and it seems like what I suspected is true, must be true. Please correct me if this is incorrect: 25 degrees Celsius on this particular sensor is equal to 750mV and it has a scale factor of 10mV / degree C...

Any attempt to allocate an object from within the timer callback will cause a memory error. The statement x = 0.5 will allocate memory for a float, which can't be done from inside an ISR. I wrote up something using threads from http://forum.micropython.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=15&hilit=generator#p208...

Great, that is helpful to know, but can I still obviously don't quite have a handle on it because I still have this stupid question: why on the arduino do I have to calculate with 5 volts. Is it just a matter of the the adc converting the stir ee voltage range based on a different reference voltage...

I'd guess that this has something to do with Unicode support and someplace using chars where it should be using bytes.

Thanks Dave, that helps a lot. The pictures make it perfectly clear. I've been working with the Raspberry Pi quite a bit lately and have been using Adafruit's cobbler ( http://www.adafruit.com/products/914 ) breakout cable for making connections to the GPIO from a breadboard and it has kind of has ...

I've helped quite a number of people who are relatively new to microcontrollers who connect up all of the "important" signals and forget about ground, which is the only reason I mentioned it. For people who are famlliar with electronics, its fairly obvious, but it trip you up if you're new.

This photo shows how you should install the headers in order to use one of the "skins" with the MicroPyton board. Personally, I prefer using male pins when I'm developing (easier to clip to a logic analyzer probe onto), so I wired up one of my micropython boards like this . When my LCD skin arrives...
