(...) Sergey, This is an EXCELLENT idea. On an old project I used to work on, I actually used an SREC dump routine, but here the tower would cause problems because the PC would keep having to poll for addresses.

Now I can create many different “saved” pbForth versions and load them at will. The idea is (...) (25 years ago, 6-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

(...) I don't have this word defined yet. If you like and REALLY need it, I can roll it into the next release which will use the ROM math routines for speed.

Hi Ralph, Nice to see a new release! Only question, why did you remove sources from the package? Would be really nice if you can publish the sources too. Sergey Udovenko (25 years ago, 4-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

Finally, the pesky stack bug and the goofy double echo byte problem has been fixed. Thanks to Sergey Udovenko I have also integrated a little "splash screen" on the LCD that lets you know pbForth is up and running. (URL) Will get you there. Please (...)
