Hello weekend AmForth'ers So, while waiting to see what will happen with the repo I have continued to play with a git version for my own use. I have reworked the makefile and made some changes to the repo structure to accommodate for the new avra code (which is still only a placeholder until I get that repository in properly). I think that the new makefile should make it very easy to get started and there is a bit of a long winded readme to explain anything that has changed. If anyone wants to take a look and give feedback that would be great. https://github.com/CableGuy67/AmForth All the best, Mark > This is very close to what I am currently using (software wise). > I had ordered a Hifive Unmatched, a riscv64 computer in miniITX > Format.
