  1. Using the #Zesarux emulator in #JupiterACE #emulation mode and defining some high-level words to handle strings ...

    I can see why this machine, in hindsight, has probably been one of the best ways to learn #Forth in its day as it comes with just enough words in its dictionary to get you going. It's a very compact vocabulary:

    No ACCEPT, no MOVE and no 2DUP or even HEX - you need them, you write them yourself.

    But this is what sharpens your skills and gives you a very good understanding of the bottom-up method.

    Boy, I love this machine and its compatible remake, the #Minstrel4th

  6. #Amstrad #CPC development environment is almost set up!

    I've got #VSCode, #z88dk, #cpcxfs and #ZEsarUX working together nicely with a Makefile to compile C code, create a disk and automatically launch the emulator with the disk inserted.

    I need to look at assembly next.
