Hello all,
I have updated to provide an option that does not require setting up a Python Virtual Environment.
This option also allows you to set up a shortcut to launch D-Rats.
It also turns out that while D-Rats running on a Linux under the Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), it is reported to not have access to the USB serial ports, it will only operate with network devices.
There is an experimental add on to the WSL-2 that allows it to access serial ports. I have not tried any of this, and do not plan to.
If someone wants to experiment with that and provide a wiki article of the results good or bad, it would be appreciated.
Another option to MSYS2 is Cygwin. It should be able to provide the same environment as MSYS2.
Again, if someone wants to experiment with that and give instructions, it would be appreciated.
73,
-John
