Check pin capabilities at compile time
Are there board-independent functions to check pin capabilities at compile time? I.e.
Can the pin be used as output, as in digitalWrite()?
Does the pin support PWM, as in analogWrite()?
Does the pin ...

Why do I need to use latin-1 instead of utf-8 when using python with arduino?
When reading and writing with a python serial port connection to arduino, if I don't use latin-1 ('ISO-8859-1'), the results are not as expected. Like if I have
int outP = 5;
//...
int outV = Serial....
