Thanks for improving the error handling 👍 It's nice to catch errors, but this doesn't make the error messages more understandable for the users as far as I can tell. It just prints the error message without the full stacktrace. It's also only catching TimeoutErrors. Is that the only type of error? Wouldn't there be a different error if the user has another terminal connected to the device? I run into that problem very often.
Also, I recommend doing this within detect_shell_mode or to make a util function so this logic only needs to be maintained one place.

@gregersrygg I will handle the error inside the function that detect the shell mode. I'm closing this PR |
