PyDOS will now run on microcontroller boards running either CircuitPython or Micropython.

If you are going to run PyDOS under CircuitPython, it's highly recommended that you disable the PyStack and compile a custom CircuitPython UF2 image. You can find instructions on the youtube video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWy5_B3LL8c or Adafruit's website at https://learn.adafruit.com/building-circuitpython/build-circuitpython?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI5cf10MyZ8gIVlD6tBh2nKQUKEAAYASAAEgLOGvD_BwE

Running PyDOS on CircuitPython results in more available memory and virtually eliminates problems running adventure in PyBasic, As PyDOS adds features, running Adventure under Micropython has gotten much more difficult so this release includes a version of PyBasic that will load directly from the REPL. Simply type "import PyBasicx" at the REPL prompt.
