I'm a big git+github fan too, but I knew how to use subversion back in the paleolithic era (i.e. 2005). I can figure out how to use it again. Of course, it may all be moot since I'm short on free time and have been poisoned by python. We'll see. -Leon On Mon, Mar 3, 2014 at 9:19 AM, Andreas Wagn

Re: [Amforth] amforth : newbie : a simple procedure for butterfly?

2013-11-09 Thread Leon Maurer
Hello Mayuresh, AmForth comes with a pre-compiled binary for the Butterfly; it's in the appl/avr-butterfly/ directory. The simplest method to get up and running is to flash that binary onto the device and not worry about compiling it. I'm not sure the easiest way to do this on Windows, but AVRDUD

Re: [Amforth] Assembler For Building Amforth

2013-10-17 Thread Leon Maurer
That certainly sounds like an interesting idea. At present, my Python skills are better than my Forth skills, so -- if you do go ahead -- let me know if I can help. (I've been meaning to learn about AVR assembly for some time.) -Leon P.S. FWIW, I contacted Atmel customer support, and -- after con

As with any time Forth comes up, that post generated some heat in the comments, but it seems reasonably civilized. FWIW, the managing editor of Hack a Day lives in the same city as me, and he asked me to write that article. Anyhow, I've been lurking here for a while without using AmForth, but I'm

Re: [Amforth] How to activate the floating point package

2012-05-07 Thread Leon Maurer
Hello Jan, If you're looking for floating point wordset I made for amforth some time ago, see the readme in the repository; it has some instructions. The code uses some words which weren't included in amforth by default. Once that's taken care of, all you

Interesting -- I'll look in to it. I've been thinking about rewriting f/ to use integer arithmetic -- hopefully that'll make it faster. I might do the rewrite and see if that solves the problem. -Leon On Sat, Sep 11, 2010 at 4:03 PM, pito wrote: > Leon, > we've observed an interesting anomaly: wh
