Major changes to note.

Gui elements are instant for updating variables. If you change a slider, textbox, dropdown or list box it will instantly update the variable on the esp. The same is true if you update a variable it will update gui elements almost instantly.

All the commands use commas for separating parameters. Not spaces any more.


New commands for TFT display touch screen interface. Gui items for the touch screen with loads of functionality from cicciocb.

removal of old pwo, pwi, po, pi, ai and servo commands. These are all handled using the io() function now.

removal of msgget command. Replaced with msgget() function.


I am sure ther is more I have forgot but these are the highlights.

Adds http:// in front of IP address in settings.
Changed IP address to 192.168.4.2 but AP not found - still only connects to http://192.168.4.1

You must enter only the IP address without the http://

I did, I think it added the http:// when I did a save. I have since removed it to leave just the address and saved that, but no AP is available at that specified IP address, I can still only connect via 192.168.4.1

Commands like pi which return a value to variable will be removed as the io() function now takes care of this and can be used to assign a value to variable.

I don't see any reference to the new io() function, but all the old po pi stuff is still there.

The left-hand 'Outline' index window of the new language reference is not resizable but is too narrow to read the entries on my monitor (1025 x 768).
