- use correct 'mingw-w64' package name
- small grammar fixes
- modify Cygwin build instructions to use that same compiler as well: the
original mingw is stuck at gcc v4.7 and does not seem to be updated anymore
- make it clear thet uPy also builds using Visual Studio versions > 2013
Ubuntu's mingw32 has gcc 4.2.1, which is rather old and has incorrect
non-initialized variable analysis which produces warnings, which
per MicroPython default settings get turned into errors.
py/mphal.h contains declarations for generic mp_hal_XXX functions, such
as stdio and delay/ticks, which ports should provide definitions for. A
port will also provide mphalport.h with further HAL declarations.
Also make sleep.c self-contained by moving initialization code,
instead of having part of the code in init.c, and add a header file
to accomodate this.
msec_sleep() now uses the usleep() implementation as well.
If VT100 support is not available then a given implementation of
mp_hal_erase_line_from_cursor might need to know the number of characters
to erase.
This patch does not change generated code when VT100 is supported, since
compiler can optimise away the argument.
- add SEEK_XXX definitions, this fixes missing definition in py/stream.c
- move R_OK from realpath.c and add W_OK/F_OK defintions
- move STDXXX_FILENO definitions from mpconfigport for consistency
This allows using (almost) the same code for printing floats everywhere,
removes the dependency on sprintf and uses just snprintf and
applies an msvc-specific fix for snprintf in a single place so
nan/inf are now printed correctly.
- by default look for a user.props in the msvc directory, which is more convenient
than the built-in way of looking for such file in the user's home directory
- make git ignore the file
