I was too terse. The problem is that I added a progress bar.
Previously, the printout sequence was:
Writing to Flash...
followed by an indeterminate wait, followed by the string "done." which
formed the composite:
Writing to Flash... done.
I added a progress bar, but the progress bar needs to be on a new line.
I fixed this in cmd_mem.c, but not in the env code, resulting in
Stefan's complaint (b).
With the (next version of the) progress dots patch, the sequence will be:
Writing to Flash
v
..................................................
done.
One thing I am debating is to add a parameter to the flash write command
that says whether to do the progress dots or not. Then we could
suppress the (silly) dots on short writes.
Best regards,
gvb
