Re: [Csnd-dev] [EXTERNAL] [Csnd-dev] Daisy build info

OK, I have DaisyExamples and was able to run rebuild_all.sh (at a git bash
prompt. I then copied in the CsoundDaisyExamples folder as well as the lib
and include from the latest Csound build.

Then I went into the DaisyCsoundGenerative folder and ran make. Got this
error:

c:/program files (x86)/gnu arm embedded toolchain/10
2020-q4-major/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-none-eabi/10.2.1/../../../../arm-none-eabi/bin/ld.exe:
cannot open linker script file
/c/Users/daves/OneDrive/Documents/GitHub/DaisyExamples/DaisyCsoundExamples/DaisyCsoundGenerative/../STM32H750IB_qspi_custom.lds:
No such file or directory
collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Is there some other required dependency that isn't documented?
