Simple sniffer for inexpensive Espressif ESP8266 Wi-Fi SoCs

ESP8266 Monitor app

First try at ESP8266 programming.

Notes to future self:

• esptool and esptool.py are two completely different pieces of software.
• Back then I found it rather clean to store SDK/Toolchain in some path other than /opt/Espressif, and put export {XTENSA_TOOLS_ROOT,SDK_BASE,ESPTOOL,ESPPORT,FW_TOOL} into my environment.
• Following links may be considered friendly:
  • https://github.com/esp8266/esp8266-wiki/wiki/Toolchain
  • http://bbs.espressif.com/ (http://bbs.espressif.com/viewforum.php?f=5 in particular)
  • https://github.com/3s1d/esp_prog (oh, and, by the way, that was my first idea after getting my module, but had no time to play with it for a couple of weeks... :P)
• I somehow managed to break my ESP-01, so it fails to power up on CH_PD, if not pushed down onto the table. Don't ask.
