  • The Zen of Forth
    4 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 29 Dec 2022
    Forth also requires very minimal resources to implement which can be fun in constrained environments. Here it is on a TI-84+ calculator[0] or even a computer in The Powder Toy.[1]

    The runtime design is a little quirky but straightforward and you can extend the system as you execute (or even change interpreter semantics), or add optimizations such as some form of JIT quite easily.

  • Jonesforth – A sometimes minimal FORTH compiler and tutorial (2007)
    11 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 13 May 2022
    Some time ago I wrote an implementation of Forth that runs on the TI-84+ and TI-83+ calculators directly inspired by Jonesforth.[0] It runs under TI-OS as well, but the amount of available space is somewhat limited. On another implementation I wrote[1] you have full access to the calculator hardware and memory from Forth.

    On the TI-84+, assembly programs still work and it's still a test-approved device. I wrote a Forth interpreter[0] that can interop with the syscalls as well

    Something bespoke.

    My code repository contains a link to a youtube channel where the board was discussed, and where I found it randomly. But sadly the upstream site of the provider and the (useful) forums it hosted are gone unless you use the wayback machine:

  • Turbo Pascal Turns 40
    8 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 30 Nov 2023
    That's what I remember too.

    I briefly documented how to run Turbo Pascal 3.00A on a CP/M system a while back:

    https://github.com/skx/z80-playground-cpm-fat/blob/main/TURB...

    I'm doing that on a single-board Z80-based system, and it has to be said that writing pascal is a pleasure on such a machine. 64k of memory, and yet code compiles to real executables "instantly".

    This is a copy of CP/M running on a single-board computer. Source code I'm using is here.
