I've started a project recently related to pbForth. And I'm interested in some community feedback. Last night I wrote a preliminary pbForth syntax highlighter for the editor component I use in BricxCC. And I modified BricxCC slightly so that you can (...)

So with inverting every other message byte were you able to work at 4x? Were you then also able to work at close range at 4x? It would seem easy to patch LNP to automatically do this inversion. I'll have to give this a try. thanks, mark (23 years ago, 28-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I'm trying to implement a 16bit multiply that leaves a 32bit result on the H8/300. The RCX ROM includes 16x16=16 and 32x32=32 multiplication routines, but not the intermediate step.
