Well it took a bit of time but I am back on the road again...

I have not been very active on here for a while and when I have it was with CygWin...

Well this MBP had to go back to the Apple Store for a new disk drive.
It was repaired under warranty and I was very pleased with the service. However, returning this tub back to not quite the same as it was before has shown up a major bug with AudioScope.sh.

Arduino would not show up as a device in /dev and after scratching my head as to why I had to install FTDI device drivers for it to work. I reaaly don't remember doing so originally but I must have.

This point is now made in the Manual with a pointer to the drivers and I also decided NOT to install XCode, (gcc), just in case there are quirks that might make AudioScope.sh work when it shouldn't...

Anyhow guys I am back and lurking with a new HDD in this MBP...

Apple get the thumbs up from me and now I can get back to shell scripting...
