Re: [Amforth] Porting AmForth to other architectures...
Have you seen Mecrisp-Stellaris? There is support for STM32F103. http://mecrisp.sourceforge.net/ -Andreas On Sun, Oct 26, 2014 at 10:18 PM, Bill Westfield wrote: > I was thinking that AmForth would be a good starting point for porting to > other architectures, given that > 1) It's nicely modularized. > 2) Many of the words are written in forth, but expressed in assembler. > 3) the assembler syntax is relatively generic, and probably easily ported. > (so, something like core/bin.asm stays looking about like it does now, even > if the CPU architecture changes drastically.) > > Am I out of my mind?

IMHO no > Is there a better starting point? I've played with the naken_asm recently. It is not (yet?) able to do the job for the atmega's but a msp430 variant looks promising. > The actual target is an STM32F103 ARM chip. Don't suggest C > implementations; that's not what I want to do. Of course not ;) If the msp430 port is successful it's probably easier to start for another system. Currently, there are a lot of things that work for the atmegas but not for others.
