parterre 0.4.0: new names

parterre is now the official firmware name: versions are parterre-X.Y.Z (were og-X.Y.Z) and the firmware files are parterre-0.4.0-.uf2.

Lua calls renamed (the old og_* names are gone; update scripts that used them):

• parterre's own: pt_set_mode, pt_led, pt_keypads
• greenhouse's tools: gh_mem, gh_key, gh_mirror, gh_dump_file, gh_rename_file, gh_board, gh_midi_monitor, gh_midi_counts

Use greenhouse from greenhouse.vfmod.com (reload it once): older copies don't know the new names or files.

Updating keeps your scripts (the file system stays where it was since og-0.3.7). Tested on the Open Grid kit (RP2040-Zero) and a Seeed XIAO RP2040.

The firmware's grid hardware now sits behind a small board layer, the groundwork for builds for monome's grids. parterre is unofficial firmware, not made or supported by monome.

Full Changelog: v0.3.16...v0.4.0

Implements boot animation indicator and fix recovery in iii mode

This release updates the boot animation for both monome and iii modes similar to Monome's Grid.

The “mode” is indicated by the startup light pattern.

The “mode” is indicated by the startup light pattern.

particles: this is standard monome/serial mode, compatible with norns, serialosc, ansible, etc.

waves: iii mode

(Particles looks like an explosion, waves more like ripples).

To change the mode, while powering up / plugging in the device hold down the top-left (1,1) button.

To recover from a crashing startup script in iii mode, boot to iii mode and keep holding the top-left button until the top-row fills up. Grid will load without calling init.lua in a clean state.

Full Changelog: v0.3.14...v0.3.16
