fat32!!! Might need to be external instead #1

Hello,

I am the person you replied to on Reddit, so thanks so much for putting this together.

I realised, quite stupidly, that my SD card would not be compatible with SD2SNES, because MiSTER uses exfat and SD2SNES needs to be fat32. So none of this actually works as I envisaged!

One way to solve this, and still make your script useful, would be to have it write to an external USB sd card reader. So, when I want to copy my new saves from MiSTER to SD2SNES, I plug in a USB sd card reader with my SD2SNES sd card inside it. Then I run your script and it would copy it over. Of course this would then have to work vice versa.

I can probably tweak your script myself to do this, but I wondered whether you had any thoughts on how else this might be solved?

Thanks again

This is very doable, I could rewrite them so that they cancel if the folder is not detected too, on the off-chance that there's more than one device connected, so that it doesn't write saves to the wrong device. I'll look into it.
