Re: Announce: PicoLisp in Hardware (PilMCU)

Hi Alex! First of all, thanks for the wonderful tool PicoLisp and also for giving me this opportunity to work with you on this exciting project :) Please let me share some of the exciting feature that we can provide especially on the embedded perspective. Hi Everyone! I am Geo and i'm

Re: Programming environment for PilMCU

Hi Thorsten, The pilMCU is the PicoLisp interpreter itself :) To interact with it, as of the moment we will use UART and use a PC as terminal. But later we plan to add PS/2 and VGA as the means to interact with the hardware interpreter, i hope this answer your inquiry? Thanks! BR, Geo On

Re: Booting PilOS

Hi Alex, The problem is that this is a bit tedious (unless using e.g. qemu) because you have to put the test onto the USB-stick each time and reboot the test machine with it. Indeed! ok so time to install qemu.. but hmm if the current pilOS works on your qemu then it would not help right?
