Arduino reset (and additional firmware features)

[jaketesler]

Hello!
@jimblom SparkFun told me opening an issue here was the best avenue to ask my question to you directly.

I have a question regarding the most-recent published build of the ESP8266 shield firmware.

ESP8266_WiFi_Shield/Firmware/include/user_config.h

Lines 23 to 24 in 749e0c4

	#define SET_DUINO_RST_CMD "+DUINORST"
	#define SET_DUINO_RST_CMD_SIZE 9

ESP8266_WiFi_Shield/Firmware/user/at_ArduinoShield.c

Lines 15 to 23 in 749e0c4

	#define RST_LISTENING_PORT 1234
	#define RST_INIT_STRING "bootloader"
	#define RST_DONE_STRING "boot"
	#define MAX_RESET_STR_LEGNTH 10
	static char resetCommand[MAX_RESET_STR_LEGNTH + 1] = RST_INIT_STRING;
	static int resetPort = RST_LISTENING_PORT;
	static bool resetEnable = true;

These two sections of the code seem to indicate that it's possible to reset an Arduino using no hardware modifications (except modifying SJ4), and furthermore the schematic (https://cdn.sparkfun.com/assets/learn_tutorials/4/0/3/SparkFun-ESP8266-WiFi-Shield.pdf) seems to indicate that, with the proper firmware build, this should be possible.

The current published build on this repo doesn't seem to include source code for these features, and the AT+DUINORST command doesn't currently work on my own shield.

My question is, is there another (newer) version of the firmware and a way I could acquire a build of it (or the source), or, if a newer version doesn't exist, would it be possible to upload the remainder of the codebase (for compilation) so I can work on coding and developing the features into the SF source code here?

Thanks Jim!
