In my last post we setup System Workbench and setup some flashing LED code, we compiled it and uploaded it to the Pyboard.  We had to generate a HEX file in System Workbench, generate a DFU file and then upload the DFU file to the board - phew!  It's actually fairly simple to automate the DFU conversion and upload process.  First, download the DFUSE-commandline utility, here:

I've had a MicroPython board sitting around my work bench for a while.  I think it's a brilliant way of interfacing hardware and using Python in a very straightforward way.  I've thinking about getting into into programming ARM chips for a little bit, and my MicroPython board came to mind.  After all, it's potentially a great development board if only we could hack the firmware that comes with it!
