Hard reset function

#1

Would it make much sense to have a hard reset function that would
clear RAM and optionally turning off the autoreset function? The intent
would be to bring the machine to a pristine state again, for us keyboard
monkeys, without having to power cycle the board. There’s similar
functionality in MicroPython.

What board are you using? Most boards have a reset button.

#3

True, MOST do but right now I’m banging on the RPi Pico and the BOOTSEL button
doesn’t do it. :D A jumper from Pin 30 to ground will though.

Still, that doesn’t prevent the saved image from being called if set.
Seems the only way to get around that, and get a reset, is to reload the firmware.

That only happens if you’ve enabled resetautorun.

Of course, if you’re using resetautorun as it’s intended but make a mistake.

That happens, even with me! :D
