PFx Brick Scripting Language

The PFx Brick supports running script files. Scripts are simple, human readable text files stored in the PFx Brick file system. These files conform to a simple script language syntax. Script files can be loaded on to the PFx Brick using the PFx App or by using other 3rd party software to copy files from a host PC to the PFx Brick.

We've also created a Visual Studio Code plugin extension to add syntax highlighting for PFx Brick script files. Also, brickelectronic.de has kindly created a PFx language profile for Notepad++.
