Mark Abene made Rc/Forth also work with Chuck's Super Monitor. I prefer this monitor because of its ability to communicate with 9600 baud.

mcsmp_rcforth.hex: Mike Riley's Rc/Forth, modified to work with Chuck Yakym's MCSMP20 firmware. You can get it from the COSMAC ELF yahoo group.

MCSMP20B.bin: Chuck's Super monitor. Loads in at 0000h. You can get it from the Lee A. Hart's website The COSMAC ELF Membership Card .

Mass storage

Changed:

<
<

Forth without mass storage (blocks, screens) is a sad thing. A SD-Card interface could be a solution but this is an overkill for a small Forth system.

Forth without mass storage (blocks, screens) is a not complete. A SD-Card interface could be a reasonable solution but this is an overkill for a small Forth system.

EEPROM Serial Communication

Serial Peripheral Interface SPI, MC is the SPI master, the host is the slave.

e.g. AT25M02

SPI EEPROM 2Mbit (256 KiB, $3) or 25LC512 (64 KiB, $1.50). DIL8 Package. 256 KiB seems very small in today's terms where storage is measured in GiB, but I think it's more than enough for a small Forth system.
