Right you are John. I've got that code too. My only question is do we want it
as part of the "core" or would you mind loading it as an ASCII file if your
application needs it? Since I write using RTOSes for a living, I can't imagine
a useful application without one...
I'll try to get the version of the hFORTH tasker for the RAM model running
this weekend. I have commented out the PAUSE and WAKE words in the pbFORTH
kernel, so I'll need to fix that before we go further.
So, in order of priority this weekend:
1. Integrate the multitasker, initially as an ASCII addon
2. Get the MARKER word working, as an ASCII addon
3. Fix up register usage to be more RCX friendly
4. Reduce the THROW messages to those strictly needed
This could start to be fun....
Cheers,
