Info.py - what is it about?

#1

Hello,

most of the mode directories contain a file info.py, which contains simply variable declarations, which provide descriptions of the knobs, the name and similar information.

Is this file used anywhere? I already thought about a knob-description in the OSD, but the OSD does not make use of it (I even did a “grep info.py *” in ETC_Mother, but didn’t find anything).

Is this file used anywhere?

Regards
Florian

yes, the thought was info.py would be used (if included) to describe the knobs on the OSD, but currently doesn’t do this.

I think it is also used to generate this page:

Ah, thanks! I think I’ll add that to my OSD

Yeah, I source this for OTC for the Organelle display. You might want to look at that code base as I remember having to change a couple of things to get it working.
