File corrupted?

[bpardue]

Hi, I was trying to help my son with the 2019 H4K Tyro badge. Whenever we tried to verify the code from GitHub (downloaded today) in Arduino, we constantly had stray character errors, and it looked very different than what was downloaded at the H4K earlier this year. It looks like someone may have tried to edit in a word processor, etc. (there are line break characters, etc.). Can a clean copy be made available again?

Thanks,
Bill Pardue

The code looks good in github. I can upload a clean copy but I am skeptical that the code is the root cause.

Before I upload a clean copy, can you please copy the raw code from github and paste it into a new file on your computer?

Did you know that the code for the DEF CON version of the badge has been published? https://github.com/Hak4Kidz/H4K-cryptex

Thanks,
Heal

Thanks. It took a couple of tries. When copied/pasted directly from GitHub into the Arduino editor, I still received various character-related errors. When I pasted from GitHub into NotePad, that seemed to clean things up and I was finally able to verify and upload. I needed to do that for both the Tyro Badge and Red October files. I've made sure to save a "clean" copies of tboth files, which we can go back to, if needed.

GitHub has an option to view the code using the "raw" format, which would remove any unicode or artifacts that cause IDE errors.
