4 years ago Hey Bdale,
Thanks doing this! I'll take a look. I think I laid out the directories originally intending to rename motorlib and move it to another repo, but that hasn't happened yet. The directory rearrangement suggestion makes sense.
Let me know if you have any questions about the existing code or the issues tickets I've posted.

PS, I've been on a few group projects that used telemetrums and really liked them! I thought the open hardware model was neat, so I used it for my motor test data acquisition system.

I just packaged openMotor for Debian, with help from Petter Reinholdtsen. In the process, we had to make a few minor tweaks to get things to run successfully outside a simple git cloned source tree. I invite you to peruse what we did at https://salsa.debian.org/debian/openmotor and pull anything that seems useful. See the debian/patches subdirectory in particular.
Going forward, it would be really helpful if all the sources could be pushed down into an openmotor directory so that it's easier to structure setup.py to install things in a cleaner manner. We'd like to suggest you just do something like "mkdir openmotor; git mv main.py app.py motorlib uilib openmotor" and then adjust as necessary.
I look forward to contributing to openMotor beyond just packaging it for Debian over time... thanks for providing such a cool bit of code under GPLv3!
