I've just released my beta of FURS.

FURS does for Forth, what headers do for C, namely provide all the embedded configuration information inside a Cortex-M MCU, for the up to 100 inbuilt peripherals.

Without this data, neither C nor Forth (or any other language) have any clue about how to use the peripherals.

FURS does this by intercepting the Forth user source as it's uploaded to the on-chip compiler and transforming it into language the MCU inherently understands.

The Forth user source code is not altered in any way.

I've used the Fossil DCVS for the entire FURS project so that all the flowcharts, pictures, code, user doc, trouble-ticket, wiki ... everything is contained in the ONE FILE, under 5MB.

This one file gives you a web server so all you need is a browser to easily view all the above from the main menu.
