By the way guys, I think the examples snippet demonstrating some of the new features is an excellent idea, and I'm sure will be much appreciated.

I can't get the serial port interupt example to work, but I'm not sure if it's because of a bug or whether it's just me not knowing what I'm doing.

I tried using an 'out-of-the-box' download of teraterm 4.90 but every key press returned...

"Failed to reach end of input expression, likely malformed input"
"errorhcausex" (x being the key pressed)

I wasn't expecting any key presses to even be sent until pressing <BR>, so I tried using arduino serial monitor instead, but even though a character now needed a <BR> to send it, it still caused the same input error to be returned.

I copied and pasted from the posted example (included below), so it's not because of a typing error.

I was expecting key presses to be printed rather than interpreted?

looks like the error is occurring because of the quotation marks used. Looks closely at them.

The input command still requires a cr-lf to complete the input.

How on earth did you spot that Captain - it took me several minutes with my nose pressed to the screen (and feeling a bit of a fool) until I gave up and got out a magnifying glass, and even then I could only just see that one lot had slight extra curves (presumably females?).

I copied and posted though, so presumably the local font must somehow make a difference!

All I can say is... your eyesight is as sharp as your mind, sir.
