Installation to ESP

Download the MicroPython firmware from micropython.org dependent on ESP type
Flash firmware to ESP as described in the link above
Start a tool which supports download Python files to ESP like "uPyCraft" or "mpfshell" or "rshell" or "pycom"-plugin for VS-Code
Adapt the "telex.json" and "networks.json" file to fit your ESP pinout and TTY settings. See wiki page Configuration
Download all Python (*.py) and JSON (*.json) files from folder "/workSpace" to ESP.
Optional: Establish WLAN connection to use WebREPL and/or Telnet. E.g. use module WiFiManager
To use the USB connection to type and display ASCII characters import module "term" and start it with:
```
 import term
 term.run()
```
This example code gets inputs from stdin (keyboard), convert it to Baudot-Murray-code and send it to software TTY. All inputs from software TTY are converted to ASCII and printed to stdout (screen).
