Add support for the Arduino IDE beta build? #13

Closed per1234 closed 6 years ago

per1234 commented 6 years ago

In addition to the hourly build, there is now a beta build. The purpose is to promote testing of experimental features before they are merged into the master branch (which is what the hourly build is built from).

It's not clear whether the beta build is around for the long term or if it's primarily intended for testing arduino-preprocessor and will not be used after that is merged.

According to https://github.com/arduino/Arduino/issues/6736#issuecomment-374138913 the Beta branch system is only temporary and thus is not worth formally incorporating it into the script.
