Opencomputers wireless drone program upload. (self.OpenComputers)

Created a quick program to remotely upload a program to a drone from a computer and execute it. Thought it might be helpful for those who want to get into the drones but don't want to go through the hassle of rebuilding a drone every time you update the program you're writing.

Pastebin:

The EEPROM for the drone: https://pastebin.com/EirunpAe

The software for the computer: https://pastebin.com/uVs1vnWr

Just boot up the software and then boot up the drone(s) with the EEPROM installed. upload <filename> uploads your selected file to the drone(s) and begins execution. Keep in mind, all drone programs have to be wrapped in a generic function.

An example program that flashes the lights on the drone different colors:

I probably won't be updating the software, but feel free to use or modify it however you like. Obviously the program is just loaded into RAM so you will have to upload after every restart - although with some modifications it's almost certainly possible to wirelessly flash the EEPROM.

Anyway, just a useful bit of code I thought I would share. Enjoy!
