Description: ## ampy
        
        Adafruit MicroPython Tool (ampy) - Utility to interact with a CircuitPython or MicroPython board over a serial connection.
        
        Ampy is meant to be a simple command line tool to manipulate files and run code on a CircuitPython or
        MicroPython board over its serial connection.
        With ampy you can send files from your computer to the
        board's file system, download files from a board to your computer, and even send a Python script
        to a board to be executed.
        
        Note that ampy by design is meant to be simple and does not support advanced interaction like a shell
        or terminal to send input to a board.  Check out other MicroPython tools
        like [rshell](https://github.com/dhylands/rshell)
        or [mpfshell](https://github.com/wendlers/mpfshell) for more advanced interaction with boards.
        
        ## Installation
        
        You can use ampy with either Python 2.7.x or 3.x and can install it easily from
        Python's package index.  On MacOS or Linux, in a terminal run the following command (assuming
        Python 3):
        
            pip3 install --user adafruit-ampy
        
        On Windows, do:
        
            pip install adafruit-ampy
        
        Note on some Linux and Mac OSX systems you might need to run as root with sudo:
        
            sudo pip3 install adafruit-ampy
        
        If you don't have Python 3 then try using Python 2 with:
        
            pip install adafruit-ampy
        
        Once installed verify you can run the ampy program and get help output:
        
            ampy --help
        
        You should see usage information displayed like below:

              ampy - Adafruit MicroPython Tool
        
              Ampy is a tool to control MicroPython boards over a serial connection.
              Using ampy you can manipulate files on the board's internal filesystem and
              even run scripts.
        
            Options:
              -p, --port PORT  Name of serial port for connected board.  [required]
              -b, --baud BAUD  Baud rate for the serial connection. (default 115200)
              -d, --delay DELAY Delay in seconds before entering RAW MODE (default 0)
              --help           Show this message and exit.
        
            Commands:
              get  Retrieve a file from the board.
              ls   List contents of a directory on the board.
              put  Put a file on the board.
              rm   Remove a file from the board.
              run  Run a script and print its output.
        
        If you'd like to install from the Github source then use the standard Python
        setup.py install (or develop mode):
        
            python3 setup.py install
        
        Note to run the unit tests on Python 2 you must install the mock library:
        
            pip install mock
        
        ## Usage
        
        Ampy is made to talk to a CircuitPython MicroPython board over its serial connection.  You will
        need your board connected and any drivers to access it serial port installed.
        Then for example to list the files on the board run a command like:
        
            ampy --port /dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART ls
        
        You should see a list of files on the board's root directory printed to the
        terminal.  Note that you'll need to change the port parameter to the name or path
        to the serial port that the MicroPython board is connected to.
        
        Other commands are available, run ampy with --help to see more information:
        
            ampy --help
        
        Each subcommand has its own help, for example to see help for the ls command  run (note you
        unfortunately must have a board connected and serial port specified):
        
            ampy --port /dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART ls --help
        
        ## Configuration
        
        For convenience you can set an `AMPY_PORT` environment variable which will be used
        if the port parameter is not specified.  For example on Linux or OSX:
        
            export AMPY_PORT=/dev/tty.SLAB_USBtoUART
            ampy ls
        
        Or on Windows (untested) try the SET command:
        
            set AMPY_PORT=COM4
            ampy ls
        
        Similarly, you can set `AMPY_BAUD` and `AMPY_DELAY` to control your baud rate and
        the delay before entering RAW MODE.
        
        To set these variables automatically each time you run `ampy`, copy them into a
        file named `.ampy`:
        
        ```sh
        # Example .ampy file
        # Please fill in your own port, baud rate, and delay
        AMPY_PORT=/dev/cu.wchusbserial1410
        AMPY_BAUD=115200
        # Fix for macOS users' "Could not enter raw repl"; try 2.0 and lower from there:
        AMPY_DELAY=0.5
        ```
        
        You can put the `.ampy` file in your working directory, one of its parents, or in
        your home directory.
