The MSPM0 Python programmer has just recently been updated, I set AI on it, to give it a decent scroll buffer, and also show the status at the bottom. Now it looks like a real text-based app.

Also, there is an Android port, here:

https://github.com/shabaz123/easy_mspm0_prog/releases/

The Android version allows for installing local .hex files on the phone, or from a web link (can be a GitHub repo, and if there is also a .json file in the folder, it will use that as metadata to print some firmware detail). I thought a mobile app would be useful so anyone can upload firmware a bit easier. There may be minor bugs with it, since it was AI generated! But it generally functions with the odd quirk or two (and left to its own devices, the AI generates really ugly, busy layouts, and with horrendous colors.. I asked it to then tone it down, but there are still many pointless little graphic icons etc.). I need to learn how to specify a simplistic apple-style mentality/design language from the start, so it doesn't ever get to this stage again.

Hi Jan,

This is super-useful! The integration with VS Code is really nice.

I had a request, I was wondering, would it be possible to have a the CMakeLists.txt file not generate the sysconfig output, perhaps if specified somehow, or if the sysconfig file is not present? I'm thinking about the scenario where someone might forget to share the sysconfig file and only supply the generated output, or the scenario where someone directly touched the generated output, hence cannot regenerate the output.
