Bus Monitor export to file feature #7

Closed pavel-kirienko closed 3 years ago

pavel-kirienko commented 7 years ago

This feature is needed and missing. A possible approach is to save all CAN frames into a human-readable (yet easily parseable) text file, one frame at a line, additionally extended with parsed UAVCAN message representation. For example:

No this is a stupid idea. We need something more space-efficient.
