Hi Christian, I am using XP: 1. my editor is PN (programmers notepad) 2. terminal is Mosaic Terminal (tuned for forth, drag and drop capab., promt history) 3. editing in PN and draging files directly into MT, always "marker -BLABLA" at the beginning of any forth code I do 4. when not happy do -BLABLA and you delete all the stuff you did recently 5. When happy with my words I upload all final words I may need (my "system setup", basically I have everything interesting from amforth repository there as I have 128KB flash) and then I DOWNLOAD (via avrdude) the whole image from atmega into a file called my.hex and my.eep (currently ~20k, it takes ~30sek) 6. when a crash occures I burn back my.hex and my.eep only, it takes 40sec and I am fully back with everything I need. 7. So an incremental approach with periodic downloads of the atmega flash and eeprom (!)images into a backup file. The way of flashing the forth core and then upload of all the forth libs and then all my own words via terminal is simply too langweilig for me. Pito
