# Kaleidoscope-FirmwareDump
|
|
|
|
This plugin provides a single Focus command: `firmware.dump`, which dumps the
|
|
firmware's executable code. One might rightfully wonder what purpose this serves
|
|
when the source code is available, but rest assured, there is one: in case one
|
|
wants to temporarily replace their firmware, then put it back on, without having
|
|
to carry the HEX file around, this command makes that possible: dump the
|
|
contents, turn them into HEX, and it can be re-flashed at any point. We get a
|
|
HEX file on-demand, and don't have to carry it around!
