Thought this might be interesting as a code base for people who are connecting their 265SXB and other boards:
Quote:
The Forth Line Evaluator is a serial terminal interface for Mecrisp Forth:

* connects as terminal console to an attached microcontroller board over serial
* line entry: each line is sent out over serial, and output displayed back
* command history: uses readline to edit and re-send previous commands
* include files: each line of the form "include <filename>" is processed as a request to send the contents of that file as if it had been typed in
* nested includes: include lines found inside are also processed recursively
* throttling: each line waits for an "ok." prompt before sending the next one
* firmware uploads: allows erasing an STM32F1 chip and uploading new firmware
* the default baud rate is 115200, see folie -help for a list of options

(EDIT, fixed. Thanks!)

Argh, typo in headline, an "h" too many. Can't see a way to get rid of that?
