That's OK. I actually *DID* need it, because I didn't have ts-dos on my
M100. I also apologize, as it was right in the instructions. I was in a
hurry to get going, and didn't read till the end :-)
Reboot normally just results in proceeding to the normal tpdd
emulation main loop.
Since I replied to Brian off-list, I found that the issue was a long
hidden directory name "System Volume Information" that Windows sticks on
all removable media (you can delete, but Windows just adds it back next
time you put in the card). To address, I modified the code to not scan
or send to the client any hidden files are directories.
For the platform selection,
I scrounged through all the board.txt and platform.txt files in the
arduino IDE installation and found suitable IDE-supplied macros to
detect at least the handful of boards currently specifically
supported. I haven't pushed that yet because I'm still testing, but
it's now detecting the platform at compile-time based on whatever
board you chose in the IDE.
Cool, I hope you commit the changes back to the repo.
Just pushed it.
I'd like to
update my repo and then I'd like to maybe ask if you have some more
goals for the project beyond moving to esp32 and adding in the modem
stuff. The code is a bit tough for me to understand at present, so I'm
considering refactoring some of it and moving some of it to other CPP
files to make it easier to understand, but I'm also aware that would
create issues for back porting, so thought I would see where the project
is going.
By all means. My copy has already done the same thing to Jimmy's
original. I keep meaning to re-do some of the changes in isolation
without any stylistic junk edits and not-strictly-needed refactoring to
make sensible PR's to submit back to SD2TPDD, but instead I just keep
changing it even more.
