Okay now I get what you mean by the sketch thing. RPi’s are fully fledged Debian Linux single-board computers, so as long as you have proper libraries and support, most Unix programs can run on it, like in this case the apps are .sh or shell files. Yeah I get the desktop and a shell where I run the diagnostic commands and the open source dashboard program as well. The program just says “data: can0. Polling… “ and a blank screen where it should display the hex values.
