no. 20:34:41 I just pushed up an old-ish project and a more recent sequel: https://github.com/JohnEarnest/Wikireader-Adventures 20:34:46 in both cases a bit of a rush job 20:34:54 but not entirely

22:33:26 what is wikireader? 22:33:32 hi JohnEarnest :) 22:33:56 hello 22:34:24 bjorkintosh: it's a littlle consumer electronics widget: http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2009/10/wikireader-hands-00.jpg 22:34:34 it was designed to use Forth in its factory tests 22:34:58 wow. never heard of it. 22:35:02 the idea of the device was to allow people to browse an offline snapshot of wikipedia as sort of a desk reference thing 22:35:17 right. isn't it rather small? the screen size? 22:35:19 you can obtain them fairly cheaply used/refurbished if you shop around- $15-30ish 22:35:30 and i notice it's from 6 years ago. is it still on sale? 22:35:39 240x208 pixels 22:35:44 big enough for a fair amount of text 22:36:05 touch screen capable? 22:36:07 I don't think the original manufacturer exists anymore 22:36:09 yes 22:36:17 right. what did you do with it? 22:36:37 the device is fully open source too which is nice- everything from the board schematics to the software 22:37:04 I made a page a day calendar thing and a program which generates randomized writing prompts 22:37:53 another possible application which I think would be pretty easy would be turning the wikireader into a tiny battery powered serial terminal you could attach to other devices 22:38:12 what's the processor in it? 22:38:25 a somewhat esoteric but fairly powerful Epson SoC 22:38:32 http://www.epsondevice.com/webapp/docs_ic/DownloadServlet?id=ID000410 22:39:35 the forth it comes loaded with is based on Ficl, and it comes with some examples of :code words which can be examined here: https://github.com/wikireader/wikireader/blob/master/samo-lib/forth/ansi-forth.fs 22:40:20 here's a good one with some meat to it: https://github.com/wikireader/wikireader/blob/master/samo-lib/forth/ansi-forth.fs#L2796-L2821 22:44:47 anyway I thought it was a fun little platform to tinker around with 22:44:52 very easy to get into 22:45:12 sounds like fun! 22:45:20 might even be cool to make a little touchscreen keyboard and turn it into a desktop forth interpreter 22:46:18 like the HP calculators of yore, but even forth-ier 22:50:43 here's one on ebay for $25: http://www.ebay.com/itm/WikiReader-Wiki-Reader-Database-Original-Packaging-Maual-/391300312350?hash=item5b1b50ed1e:g:SeAAAOSwhcJWJ9Tq 22:59:52 --- quit:
