== Glitch Explorer ==
The Glitch Explorer has drastically changed in 4.0.0. Previously the Glitch Explorer used the "Scripting" interface and relied on you specifying some arbitrary data to change. Now instead you define a Python function that changes the glitch parameters, and use the existing "auxiliary" links to execute the functions.
API Changes
The ChipWhisperer is moving towards a "sane" API. This means that now for example you can inspect the value of a "scope" object, and it will print all current settings:<syntaxhighlight lang="python">

</syntaxhighlight>It also allows you to now modify settings via simple set statements:<syntaxhighlight lang="python">
>>> scope.io.nrst = False
>>> scope.io.nrst = True
>>> scope.clock.clkgen_freq = 4E6
</syntaxhighlight>
