    Sure, I'll do a cleanup and a pull request. Does that mean you're going to compile the ARMinARM version and distribute it together with versions for other boards? That would be awesome and make my life a lot easier. The reason for the fork and download scripts for the precompiled .bin I provide is that I didn't want to bother you with it. I figured you'd have a lot of work when half the world and their mother decides to sell boards that also run Espruino. You're making this too easy :)

    If you don't mind I'll wait a few weeks when I'm 100% sure these boards are actually going out to people. I'm only 99.99% sure now, but in it for the long run, so no rush. And I don't want you to be doing any work for nothing. By that time I may have also had the chance to have a better look at how to build the documentation. The pinout in the .py file are still the pins I copied from the Espruino board file, and do not match the ARMinARM board.

    I had to build the toolchain for the Raspberry Pi myself. It's based on the Yagarto toolchain. The build scripts can be found here: https://github.com/ARMinARM/arm-toolchai­n-build-scripts
    That takes ~20 hours to build on a Raspberry Pi (I really should be cross compiling this), so there's a precompiled version here: https://github.com/ARMinARM/arminarm-bin­
    It's downloaded and installed by the script files here: https://github.com/ARMinARM/arminarm ('install_toolchain.sh' in the bin directory, which is called by the 'setup' menu)

    I'll make a post about how to compile a nightly build of Espruino on the Raspberry Pi in more detail when I get the chance (soonish).

    Good point about the other cool stuff about Espruino. The website is in its early stages as well, so for now I was hoping people will look on the Espruino website for details (and maybe even buy an Espruino board, that'll be good). I will definitely add the 'espruino_command.py' script though, and write something about it. Because that is indeed very cool.
