From 5f91933e54b103e5ba7add7f0762659709ea5adb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: stijn Date: Tue, 4 Feb 2020 11:09:09 +0100 Subject: windows: Improve default search path. The default value for MICROPYPATH used in unix/main.c is "~/.micropython/lib:/usr/lib/micropython" which has 2 problems when used in the Windows port: - it has a ':' as path separator but the port uses ';' so the entire string is effectively discarded since it gets interpreted as a single path which doesn't exist - /usr/lib/micropython is not a valid path in a standard Windows environment Override the value with a suitable default. --- docs/unix/quickref.rst | 5 +++-- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'docs/unix') diff --git a/docs/unix/quickref.rst b/docs/unix/quickref.rst index a5180fa6cb..ec5312a535 100644 --- a/docs/unix/quickref.rst +++ b/docs/unix/quickref.rst @@ -82,8 +82,9 @@ Environment variables .. envvar:: MICROPYPATH Overrides the default search path for MicroPython libraries. ``MICROPYPATH`` - should be set to a colon separated list of directories.
