Advanced serial terminal program code#
Since then when a tough job comes up people immediately say "It's impossible" in the hope that it will then be done.Ī good example of this the idea of compiling C code to run on the Prop. Often only a partial solution but usefull anyway, and amazingly clever. Only to find that someone had done it already in some form or other. I commented once something to the effect that I had discounted some tasks as obviously impossible for the Propeller to do because it did not have the speed or memory capacity or whatever. I'm not sure but I might have started it. Sorry, the "X is impossible to do on a Propeller" thing has become a bit of a standing joke around here.

If it is possible to program one Propeller from another and address a large memory stick using Smalltalk, there should be no need to use a PC for my Propeller projects. Perhaps PropForth's ability to unite mutliple Propellers could be interesting. This with enough memory could be interesting and a lot cheaper than an 8 core PC. One could use Tachyon Forth or PropForth to make a virtual machine to run Cuis or a tiny Smalltalk on Propellers. But in any language sometimes legacy code can use confusing variable names depending on the programmer. Object variables allow more creativity when designing solutions. The advantages of Smalltalk over Forth include that and more.

The advantage of Smalltalk over Spin is it allows object variables, not simply methods, functions, or subroutines called objects.

One doesn't buy free Forth's, but one might sell a Propeller with a useful solution in an application of Forth and a copy of a free Forth could be included so the end user can extend, refine, or apply the product. Perhaps answering comparing to Forth may clarify. I'll stick to the irons I already have in the fire and stick with the horse that brung me Why is this better than any of the other solutions if I don't Squeak already? I'm confused.why am I buying a free copy? Are you willing to put some time in either paid or volunteer to write a new serial terminal in Squeak or Cuis Smalltalk which are free versions which the source code is freely available for both the GUI engine and virtual machine? If paid, what would be your bid on a nominal fee for this project? Thanks. Would you be interested in a free public domain serial terminal for your Propeller projects that would give you the ability to write a Graphical User Interface to display your interaction instead of only seeing a stream of numbers (and debug statements) scrolling by? What if it were 3 times easier to program in than C? That could make you more productive on the PC side of your projects.Īn application for robots would be tracking the robot graphically, possibly displaying one or two video images along side or under the path of the robot, and simplifying writing scripts for making the robot perform sequences of events.Īdding Smalltalk to the Serial Terminal can accomplish all these features.
