print.h in /cores/arduino and /cores/tiny

Using Arduino Microcontrollers
1

forgive me for cross-referencing this with the Microcontrollers subforum, but I was wondering if someone could enlighten me what was changed where:

http://arduino.cc/forum/index.php/topic,108841.0.html

in short: the print.h functions are void in the tiny libraries but size_t in the libraries that come with Arduino 1.01

Any suggestion on why this divergence might be?

I believe that was one of the changes made when version 1.0 was released - the write function that is the heart of all the print functions were changed to returning size_t at that time.

Any suggestion on why this divergence might be?

Because Tiny Core version 2 is not finished.

I understand. I fear my C-abilities are not up to par to really do some useful work, but I'd offer to help & debug.

Thank you for the offer. If I can remember, I'll let you know when a new version is ready.
