 | | PBForthConsole v0.4 source
|
| Hello, I've updated my pbFORTH console tool. New features include: - Backspace is now supported. Sloppy typing is no longer a disaster. - A file upload option. This allows you to develop scripts offline and upload them all at once, which is (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

|
| (...) Thanks, I was using that as a reference for the FORTH overview I wrote. (...) Thanks for the heads-up. It should be no trouble changing the URL, as the book is still a draft. After August or so it'll get harder, but still won't be impossible. (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
| | | | | RE: Rotation sensors?
|
| (...) OOOOHHH. That makes me feel warm and fuzzy and willing to do more work! Here's a link to an on-line (free) book about FORTH for real time applications. Tim Hendtlass (the author) is really good about linking to the book, which is hosted on the (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

| Hi Ralph, (...) Sorry for not being more specific. It shows the same value all the time. (...) Yup, you nailed it. I thought the rotation sensor was a passive resistive device. The call to SENSOR_ACTIVE fixed it up. (...) Thanks, I'm still getting (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
| | | | | RE: Rotation sensors?
|
| (...) Thanks for attaching the code Jonathan. Before I go through the steps of trying this out, what do you mean by doesn't work? ie. 1. Does it hang and not display anything? 2. Does it display the same data all the time? 3. Does it not respond to (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
| | | | | Rotation sensors?
|
| Has anyone used a rotation sensor with pbFORTH? I can't seem to get it to work. My test script is attached. Thanks, Jonathan ----- HEX : isRunButtonPressed BUTTON_GET 1 AND 1 = ; : showRotation 3002 SWAP 3001 LCD_NUMBER LCD_REFRESH ; : clear (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
| | | | | RE: Whither 0> ?
|
| (...) Yes, it's not in the hFORTH (ANSI) standard. You can always do SWAP 0< instead. The new release I'm working on does define 0> .... As a workaround, you can define 0> as above, and then remove the alias later. Cheers, Ralph Hempel - P.Eng (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
| | | | | Whither 0> ?
|
| Hi Ralph, I'm able to use <, =, >, 0<, and 0=, but 0> is not defined. Any idea why? Thanks, Jonathan (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
| | | | | RE: Java 2 pbFORTH console, version 0.2 source release
|
| (...) Wow! I haven't looked at this, and probably won't until I get more Java experience, but thanks for the effort. Just to keep everyone up to date on pbFORTH, I have (as usual) got too much other stuff on my plate right now. I am going to have (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
| | | | | Java 2 pbFORTH console, version 0.2 source release
|
| Hello, This is not for the faint of heart. I wrote a Java 2-based pbFORTH console that strips out repeated characters when talking with the RCX (most of the time). It still chokes when the IR tower awakens, but you can get some pretty clean-looking (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
