Hi Ian,
Is good to hera from you again, ope you are going well.
I will try to answer your questions:
I haven't tested the WeatherDuino code with any of the IDE 2.x.x branches, so I can't asure that it will work but it should. Important is using the Boards Manager version indicated for each firmware.
It is enough install the WD software libraries in ~/Arduino/libraries.
All the .ino files are part if the firmware and should be copied to the same folder. Using your example, when you open the WeatherDuino_P2ESP8266_RX_v6.0_b003.ino all the other .ino files will be open by the Arduino IDE too
Hope had helped.
Kind regards

Quote:First question, does IDE 2.3.2 work ok with WeatherDuino? I had something in my 6 year old notes about using Boards Manager versions below a certain release, and I have also seen something recently in the forums about potential problems with earlier releases of IDE 2.x

Quote:Third question; the receiver folder WeatherDuino_P2ESP8266_RX_v6.0_b003 has a number of .ino files, including WeatherDuino_P2ESP8266_RX_v6.0_b003.ino. I presume this is the correct sketch file to load into the IDE? What are the other .ino files, and do they all need copying up to the top level of ~/Arduino?
