John,

You might want to try this little script to try out the tasker.
It's based on Koh's demo. If you type

TASK0 AWAKE and then .TASKS, you will see the chain is ok and that
TASK0 is running.

Now press the RUN button on the RCX and try .TASKS again.

TASK0 is now sleeping...neat!

If anyone else out there is tempted to try the pbFORTH tasker, I will
email the srec to you. I have not posted it on my website because
it is very early beta software.

Cheers,

Ralph Hempel - P.Eng

  Re: Multitasker test script
 
My DEFCON code multitasks OK (except when it tries to STOP). I doesn't actually work yet because it needs SendMessage (or non-blocking EMIT) but I'll post it here if anyone is interested (actually I'll post it unless anyone objects). (26 years ago, 12-May-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth)
