While I started from the MicroUSB code, and learned some stuff from them (I know you're reading, didn't have time yet to contact you) I wrote completely new drivers, with separation of hardware and logic (so other chips than the SL811HS can be supported easily).


Hi Andre,

Re: 6516, 65832, 65032

Came across this during some random search - http://homepage.mac.com/jorgechamorro/a2things/PDFs/65xxx.txt

I've never heard of the 6516 mentioned before (as a development pursuit or otherwise). The 6516 sounds pretty impressive from what's mentioned in that article.

kc5tja's TAX INX/DEX TXA is necessary if you're using the old NMOS 6502. If you're not using a Commodore 64 or something where you're stuck with NMOS, I always recommend using the CMOS 6502 instead, partly for the added instructions.

Can the GForth EC kernel compile itself once it's on the new architecture? If so, I will be more interested in it as a disk-loaded Forth environment.

Thanks.

This should be possibe, I never tried it. The GForth Cross-Compiler is a direct descendant of the VolksForth Cross-Compiler (-> volksforth ...

Hi kc5tja,

I'm working in the GForth Team to document the GForth EC (Embedded Cross-Compiler). Bernd Paysan has recently added the R8C Target, and I try to get the 6502 and 8086 targets running again.

Did you use the GForth EC Cross-Compiler or your own Cross-Compiler?

I can recommend the ca65 assembler, part of the CC65 C Compiler, and CC65 Linker.

See http://www.cc65.org/
Manual: http://www.cc65.org/doc/ca65.html

This assembler is available in source and binary for many host platforms and target platforms.

Best regards

A good Pascal for 6502 Computers is Kyan Pascal (for Atari XL/XE and Apple II). It has inline assembler and produced moderate sized code. Maybe it is possible to patch Kyan Pascal to generate generic 65023 code (not Atari or Apple II dependend). I guess a generic Runtime Lib needs to be written.
