I am trying to help a local school with setting up & using the RPi boards for general programming and using GPIO to interface ito the RPi such as switches, leds, sensors etc.
I read somewhere Scatch would be released with a standard interface package to support GPIO, but I have just created an image & there is only motor support in the standard image on the RPi web site.
I download a patch file, but I am keen to keep the installation simple and in-line with the main code development.
Therefore; can anyone recommend the best way to setup GPIO access in Scratch?

Hi, just to let you know I am still looking to this but not got anywhere with it once I have more information I will let you know. I now have a Gertboard so can do some I/O programming
