As expected from the author, the Pic18Forth documentation is immaculte. And it is not hidden that a lot of facilities are needed to test it. And when I read Chen Xiao Fan's recent post: Mini Howto: Microchip tools under Linux with Wine, I really [more so] believe that these tasks are bloating out of control. IMO pic made sense as a 18-pin [maximum] DIL. And since 'pic asm' leads to using many macros, and forth is 'like' the ultimate macro-multiplyer/controller, and a picforth with IMO an 'appropriate minimalist view' was available I tried it. Right now I'm afraid to open up the PIC18Forth project. I've never yet even run python. A [single wheel] wheel-barrow is a marvelous tool. But it you start modifying/refining it to ape a luxury passenger vehicle, it becomes inappropriate/absurd. Isn't pic following this inappropriate route ? == Chris Glur.
