Hello zep. I was wondering about a specific behavior of Picotron and I couldn't figure if it was a regression or a choice.
Prior to 0.1.0c, if a cart folder with its name ending with .p64
was loaded, saving it would preserve the format, the cart would stay a folder. Now, whatever I try to do, as soon as I save a folder cart from Picotron, it gets turned into a .p64 file, which is a bit more inconvenient as I'm currently using an external editor.
Even cp -o <src> <dest>
doesn't save a folder anymore if <dest> is suffixed with .p64
. Copying to a normally named folder seems to work and I just realized that as I was writing this blog post. Still my question stands.
Are project folders or files ending in .p64
will always taken as files and going to be converted as such? Was the switch intentional? Should I rename all the folders in my project folder so far?
Good luck squashing all those bugs! Have a nice day!

You can use external editor like this in your main.lua file :
cd('/appdata/myfolder') -- folder where tour source files are
include('mycode1.lua')
include('mycode2.lua')
...Etc
Then, you can edit mycode1.lua and mycode2.lua with the code editor you like.
I must only do like this because AltGr key isn't working anymore in the last 2 versions of Picotron.
