Atom does look interesting. Thanks for the pointer. The target transmitter is the Walkera Devo line. These have much more capable CPUs than the various 9x boards: 32 bit ARMs at 72MHz with comparable amounts of storage. Some have 9x-like screen/button combos, others have touch screens. The deviationTx software runs on all of them. Settings are stored in a FAT file system that can be accessed as a USB drive. I'm thinking that a traditional configuration interface on the transmitter, storing the config information as program text. The only actual programming would be done by replacing the virtual channel/switch feature with expressions or short programs. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
