With ZBasic's Native mode compiler via GCC, implementing an ARM7 or LPC1xx version would be easier?
I know the run time I/O conversion would be a lotta work. Maybe do only selected I/O, not all. I have some I/O to contribute.
But there'd be a bigger market demand, eh? There's a void.
Coridium's BASIC for ARM is not in the same universe of sophistication and suitability-for-purpose as is ZBasic. And it's about all there is today. |

Porting native mode wouldn't be much different than porting the VM. We've looked briefly at the technical details of an ARM port, identifying a few issues that would need to be resolved. There is no specific plan for completing such a project, however.
I assume that you were referring to LPC21xx. Is that correct? |

| Well, I use the LPC21xx and like them. But the Cortex M3 seems to be the focus of interest now. |
