More USB host examples

[marcocipriani01]

Hello,
I was wondering if you could expand the current USB host example or add more examples. In particular, I'm looking into using the USB Type-A port on the Portenta Machine Control to access a text file on a USB drive containing the configuration for my device, which is probably the most common use case for a USB port on an industrial control unit. I can't really find a lot of information online on how to do that, not even the Portenta Breakout library has examples on how to use the USB Type-A port.
In the future, I would suggest adding the possibility of updating the firmware using a USB drive, however I don't need it right now.
Regards,
Marco Cipriani

Oh great, I never came across that library searching online. Maybe it's worth pointing to it somewhere in the documentation.
Thank you.
