I have a pile of Intel 8031 microprocessors and lots of ideas for ham-
radio type instruments etc that could use these and I'd like to use this
as a means of learning Forth, as well as getting some intelligent
instruments (e.g. R + jX bridges, controllers for frequency synthesisers).
The free floating point routines are of great value here !!!
Question:
Does anyone have a version of Forth for the 8031 that they're prepared
to give away?
OR
Is there anywhere a minimal set of definitions that can be used to
bootstrap Forth onto a new microprocessor? I've been reading the
discussions on the MINIMAL FORTH with great interest. I've seen
various implementations that could be ported but, usually, there isn't
a very clear cut list of words that must be implemented in assembler
and those that can sit on top of this kernel set.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Giovanni
