(...) I'm also playing with interfaces to pbforth at the moment. What you're doing and I'm not is syntax highlighting. I'm not actually sure how well that works in pbforth, since I'm not sure how the editor knows which words have been defined (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

Do I have to manually frequently read the values from rotation sensors for the count to work, or does the firmware monitor the sensor for me? I have home-brew passive sensors, touch sensors and light sensors working fine, but the rotation sensor is (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)

I'm trying to get started with pbforth, but not finding it easy. While I know no forth, I'm happy with RPN (long-time HP calculator user) and stacks, dictionaries and defining words (ex-Postscript programmer). What I'm struggling with is getting as (...)

I'm trying to work a project for class using a Mindstorms kit. I want to program the system using Forth, but I've had two minor glitches. 1) Is it possible to download the firmware from an old DOS system? I've had no problem using NQC, but the (...)
