Hi Victor,

Thank you for sharing the release with our community! I have used the tool before with nodemcu and it was a great way of working with ESP modules. I will add the release note and links to my unofficial guide under the tools section.

Cheers!

I have ESPlorer running on both a Mac and a Windows Laptop and am using Adafruit Huzzah Feather and DOIT ESP8266 boards . . . when using on the Mac I have the ability to transfer a file to the ESP8266, but this option is grayed out and not available on Windows. Is there a reason for this?

Is there a way to send a "CTRL-C" to stop a running process?
