Missing 'debug' and pullup issues since update

My code seems to work fine in 3.49. Since, I updated (directly to 3.56) and I observe the following 2 issues; I'm not completely convinced these are due to the update, but I'd love to know more.

1) The 'debug' button is missing from the options menu; could this be because I'm running on an ESP8266 01 (Black pcb, 1MB)? I did notice this build is slightly larger, so does it have a problem with 1MB?

2) I have switches connected to gpio.0 and gpio.2 with 10k external pullups to Vcc. Theses worked fine earlier, but now stay low despite the 10k pullups; only connecting them directly to Vcc triggers them.

Can someone share their insight on these matters, please?

Hi ardhuru,

I see in the GITHUB that this new version is to modules with 2MB or greater. Maybe there was some problem not fixed with 1Mb version...

But there is a bug related for others users in old versions : if there is not a program called default.bas, some windows don't appears ....

The solution tested is : go to EDIT page, wrote one simple line of code, and save as default.bas .

This corrected this situation, and the others missing pages appears.

Thanks for that information. I have just been downloading the flashable file directly from https://www.esp8266basic.com/download.html, so missed out on the nuances of each build.

Could you please give me the URL for github from where such specific information is available? I have tried searching, but with no success. To be honest, I'm not very familiar with github structures.

By the way, any information on the 2nd issues pertaining to the pullup resistors, at all? Strangely, today I find that my earlier pullup arrangement with a 10k resistor has started working again (under 3.49). I wonder it would stop working if I upgraded to 3.56.

Thanks a ton, again!

I'm glad I am not the only one that is somewhat mystified by Github!

Maybe I'm getting too old for this kind of thing, but I do find it very confusing. A couple of pointers would be welcome.
