  • SwiftX on Arduino mega 2560 ?

    Is this do-able? I'm suspecting not as the largest AVR part for
    which definitions are provided is ATmega1280 (64K words).

    This message is suggesting it this has something to do with swiftforth.
    Is that true (I think not)?
    According to the website it is a tool to generate assembly programs.

    Appears to be the beginning of a project but I get the sense it's
    early days.

    On a positive note, I got SwiftX running on an Arduino Leonardo.
    At least the pc talks to it and the SOS LED blinking demo runs.
    The fun part was massaging the Atmel cpu definition file into a
    form SwiftX could understand. That required some forth programming...
