I discovered that you can pass -t flag to EspruinoTools espruino command line script. Since time can drift, I want to connect to the watch once a day to update the time.

How can I run EspruinoTools/bin/espruino-cli.js with the -t flag and then exit instead of enter terminal prompt. I want just time set then exit.

EDIT: 2 sec later i find solution as usual xd, not sure if its best solution, i just put -e 'console.log("time update")'

Yes, that works fine - you just need to upload some code, anything - even 1+2 should work.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here
```
Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.

If you upload more than 5 files we will display all attachments as thumbnails.
