Take either mecrisp/4e4th for the MSP430 launchpad, or port riscypygmy or whatever the silly name of the ARM-targeted forth was to the Stellaris launchpad. Then "clean it up" - write up consistent, beautiful-looking HTML docs. And switch to a naming convention that's less INTIMIDATING. 15:37:18 Then, throw it on the internet as a zero-effort hackery environment. Download image, browse HTML docs, muck around with peripherals in screen/miniterm/putty. 15:37:40 I think there's a need for that. Especially if the peripherals already have nice wrappers in place. 15:40:20 --- quit: ncv (Remote host closed the connection) 15:51:22 --- quit: Tod-Work (Quit: Leaving) 15:55:51 --- quit: kumul (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) 16:09:19 --- join: Eth|cal (~sam@ppp59-167-172-238.static.internode.on.net) joined #forth 16:15:48 3) PROFIT 16:27:24 --- quit: epicmonkey (Ping timeout: 245 seconds) 16:31:25 3) undercut arduino and bring them CRASHING DOWN RAH 16:32:34 unfortunately part of the appeal of the arduino is "if you can program at all you can sort of fudge through this". Many people sorta kinda know C. Very few people even slightly know forth. 16:33:01 think of the arduino as essentially the PHP of blinking LEDs 16:33:48 Someone sells a board with Forth preinstalled on eBay http://r.ebay.com/2NnOvz 16:34:56 That's the thing though, get your domain-specific words right and Forth seems to be dead simple. Almost to the point of copy-paste. 16:35:21 --- join: kumul (~mool@c-76-26-237-95.hsd1.fl.comcast.net) joined #forth 16:35:33 Bitbanging SPI word set + a few minutes with a datasheet = word set for controlling , and forward from there. 16:35:59 absolutely, to someone who knows forth 16:36:07 Have you seen the Fignition (Atmel AVR single board computer with Forth) and Duinomite (with Basic). I like the look of the Duinomite... would love one with Forth on it. 16:36:21 True. The interactive, no-compiler part is a pretty big sell though. Setting up embedded toolchains can suck. 16:38:00 's why I kind of like the look of mbed. As horrifying as a web-based embedded IDE at first seems, drag and drop to flash is pretty neat. 16:42:49 --- join: kumool (~mool@c-76-26-237-95.hsd1.fl.comcast.net) joined #forth 16:45:26 --- quit: kumul (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) 16:59:58 --- join: lazyden (~lazyden@58.185.121.38) joined #forth 17:09:02 --- nick: tangentgone -> tangentstorm 17:11:46 --- join: kumul (~mool@c-76-26-237-95.hsd1.fl.comcast.net) joined #forth 17:13:29 --- quit: kumool (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) 17:23:59 --- join: kumool (~mool@c-76-26-237-95.hsd1.fl.comcast.net) joined #forth 17:25:57 --- quit: kumul (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) 17:32:02 --- join: azathoth99 (~gschuette@tx211.eharmony.com) joined #forth 17:37:29 --- quit: tgunr (Quit: ["Textual IRC Client: www.textualapp.com"]) 17:37:30 --- nick: tgunr_ -> tgunr 17:38:38 --- join: protist (~protist@140.172.69.111.dynamic.snap.net.nz) joined #forth 17:45:53 --- quit: impomatic (Read error: Connection reset by peer) 17:46:00 --- join: john_metcalf (~john_metc@46.208.134.234) joined #forth 17:58:47 --- join: ttmrichter_ (~ttmrichte@111.4.119.28) joined #forth 17:59:04 --- quit: ttmrichter (Disconnected by services) 17:59:31 --- join: ttmrichter (~ttmrichte@31.25.101.133) joined #forth 18:04:20 --- quit: ttmrichter_ (Ping timeout: 240 seconds) 18:14:45 --- part: azathoth99 left #forth 18:20:53 --- quit: lazyden (Quit: lazyden) 18:24:27 --- join: lazyden (~lazyden@58.185.121.38) joined #forth 18:27:29 --- quit: dto (Remote host closed the connection) 18:43:54 --- quit: tgunr (Quit: I'm outta here) 19:18:06 --- join: nighty-_ (~nighty@TOROON12-1279662182.sdsl.bell.ca) joined #forth 19:19:10 --- quit: nighty-_ (Read error: Connection reset by peer) 19:19:16 --- quit: nighty- (Read error: Connection reset by peer) 19:22:57 --- join: nighty- (~nighty@static-68-179-124-161.ptr.terago.net) joined #forth 19:31:13 --- join: dto (~user@pool-96-252-62-13.bstnma.fios.verizon.net) joined #forth 19:32:41 --- quit: protist (Quit: Konversation terminated!) 20:07:12 RodgerTheGreat: hello 20:07:20 hi dto 20:08:09 whats up? 20:08:26 debugging things 20:10:45 you? 20:21:06 --- quit: RodgerTheGreat (Quit: RodgerTheGreat) 20:26:50 oops. 20:41:51 --- join: mo (~mool@c-76-26-237-95.hsd1.fl.comcast.net) joined #forth 20:42:14 --- nick: mo -> Guest14701 20:44:17 --- quit: kumool (Ping timeout: 256 seconds) 20:49:01 --- quit: Onionnion (Quit: Leaving) 21:01:46 --- part: jdavidboyd left #forth 21:01:53 --- join: jdavidboyd (~user@72.185.97.240) joined #forth 21:06:46 --- quit: jdavidboyd (Quit: ERC Version 5.3 (IRC client for Emacs)) 21:07:01 --- join: Nisstyre-laptop (~yours@oftn/member/Nisstyre) joined #forth 21:07:12 --- join: jdavidboyd (~user@72.185.97.240) joined #forth 21:28:01 --- quit: jdavidboyd (Remote host closed the connection) 22:24:04 --- quit: Guest14701 (Quit: Leaving) 23:30:54 --- join: ncv (~quassel@79.114.101.3) joined #forth 23:30:55 --- quit: ncv (Changing host) 23:30:55 --- join: ncv (~quassel@unaffiliated/neceve) joined #forth 23:59:59 --- log: ended forth/13.03.25
