I've replicated this four times now but I can't tell what exactly is causing it because it's a bit random. The code runs fine initially, then if I update the code by saving, it seems like the board freezes up and the REPL becomes unresponsive. If I hit reset on the board, "Hello World" prints on the display. The code I was working on along with any installed libraries, the contents of settings.toml and any additional files are gone.
Description
Initially this was occurring when I was adding bitmap or font files. As I tried to get the program smaller that's when I was able to reproduce by saving the code.
