WOW !! GPAL does single-stepping ?

Yes the response in this group is fantastic.
But if you 'ride the horse too hard' it might get burn out.
It's always good to feedback:
* I did abc,
* got xyz..
both to reduce the work load on the developer, and spread knowledge
to other users.
We'd like to see the GPAL 'hex-generated' compared with that of
picforth, which we know you are using.
I can't remember if picforth wrote hex or if I just used a hex editor
to cutNpaste the 'obj-file'.

Yes, I got an Olympus D1000 digital voice recorder [discontinued
model for a good price], and the local agents don't want to talk to
me. Inet ambigious reports refer to bigger size memory cards being
usable.
So I did a pin count to calculate if a 4 times bigger flash-mem was
drivable. Thinking that perhaps 2 [or more] adr. lines were un-used.
The reported adaptor to PC: either via PCMIA or a par-port, may not
be easily available, so I may want to hack my own.
If the interfacing of the various flash-mem models is secret, then its
a problem ?
BTW I think pic is becoming absurd with it's 'expansion'.
Like trying to evolve a wheel barrow to a truck.
An approprate application would be the uProc which interfaces
the flash in a smart-card ?
