There is a folder: C:\msys32\home\Mike\esp\esp-idf\docs\en

What are the files with a .rst extension. I can open them in a text editor, but why .rst and not .txt ?
Is there some other application that opens them up ?

Hi mikemoy,

The files with .rst extension in docs folder are documentation source files in text format used to build ESP-IDF Programming Guide

They are opened and editable using any ordinary text editor. More on this format - http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usa ... asics.html
