===================================
RUNNING THE HOST APPLICATION:
===================================
On windows install device drivers by running InstallDriver.exe from WindowsDriverPackage folder.
An easy way to open the commandline in windows 10 is to open the host folder in explorer.
Then click on the address bar at the top, the address should highlight, simply type the
3 letters "cmd" in the address bar and hit enter.
From the host folder, run the main application from the commandline by typing:
inlretro.exe -s scripts\inlretro.lua
This will run the main application and after the device is detected and USB comms established,
control is passed to the main lua script.
See the USER notes at the top of scripts\inlretro.lua file for how to select different mappers,
cartridges, etc. You'll need to modify inlretro.lua with your favorite text editor or even
something as simple as notepad included with windows. If you don't have a favorite text editor,
I recommend something like notepad++ which color codes lua files/code for easier reading.

If the device errors out, or is not responding you may have to press the RESET button near the
USB connector on the INLretro programmer/dumper to reset the device, and try again.

===================================
SOFTWARE & FIRMWARE BUILDING
===================================
Some build instructions follow, but they shouldn't be needed if you're running the
released firmware on Windows.
This section needs some updating.... Don't be afraid to contact me if you'd like to build
your own firmware. Or are having issues building the host application on linux/mac
