I must be about the only person who hasn't asked for an offline compiler lately.

and yesterday my laptop went "BOOM" ! I went into damage limitation mode. Trying to boot in safe mode, or just with a DOS PROMPT to copy my work off. Nope.. nada .. nowt.

I have quite a few mBed projects built up,a and quite a bit of source I would not want to lose. Swapped to my wife's PC. Hey Presto.. just continued.

So..

here's my new mantra.. Back Up, Back Up, Back Up !

I'm presuming the mBed team have the same mantra.. I tell you what.. the online compiler has saved my bacon !
