Description: MicroFS
        -------
        
        A simple command line tool and module for interacting with the limited
        file system provided by MicroPython on the BBC micro:bit.
        
        Installation
        ++++++++++++
        
        To install simply type::
        
            $ pip install microfs
        
        ...and the package will download from PyPI. If you wish to upgrade to the
        latest version, use the following command::
        
            $ pip install --no-cache --upgrade microfs
        
        Usage
        +++++
        
        There are two ways to use microfs - as a module in your Python code or as a
        stand-alone command to use from your shell (``ufs``).
        
        In Code
        =======
        
        In your Python script import the required functions like this::
        
            from microfs import ls, rm, put, get, get_serial
        
        Read the API documentation below to learn how each of the functions works.
        
        Command Line
        ============
        
        From the command line (but not the Python shell) use the "ufs" ("u" = micro)
        command.
        
        To read the built-in help::
        
            $ ufs --help
        
        List the files on the device::
        
            $ ufs ls
        
        Delete a file on the device::
        
            $ ufs rm foo.txt
        
        Copy a file onto the device::
        
            $ ufs put path/to/local.txt
        
        Get a file from the device::
        
            $ ufs get remote.txt
        
        The ``put`` and ``get`` commands optionally take a further argument to specify
        the name of the target file::
        
            $ ufs put /path/to/local.txt remote.txt
            $ ufs get remote.txt local.txt
        
        Development
        +++++++++++
        
        The source code is hosted in GitHub. Please feel free to fork the repository.
        Assuming you have Git installed you can download the code from the canonical
        repository with the following command::
        
            $ git clone https://github.com/ntoll/microfs.git
        
        Ensure you have the correct dependencies for development installed by creating
        a virtualenv and running::
        
            $ pip install -r requirements.txt
        
        To locally install your development version of the module into a virtualenv,
        run the following command::
        
            $ python setup.py develop
        
        There is a Makefile that helps with most of the common workflows associated
        with development. Typing "make" on its own will list the options thus::
        
            $make
        
            There is no default Makefile target right now. Try:
        
            make clean - reset the project and remove auto-generated assets.
            make pyflakes - run the PyFlakes code checker.
            make pep8 - run the PEP8 style checker.
            make test - run the test suite.
            make coverage - view a report on test coverage.
            make check - run all the checkers and tests.
            make package - create a deployable package for the project.
            make publish - publish the project to PyPI.
            make docs - run sphinx to create project documentation.
