A project to implement a console using the Mbed using VGA for video output and a PS/2 keyboard for the input. The eventual goal is to also include tools for managing SD cards, and a semi-self-hosting programming environment.
Dependencies: PS2_MbedConsole fastlib SDFileSystem vga640x480g_mbedconsole lightvm mbed
MbedConsole is a cool little project to have a self-contained computer all on an Mbed. So far it has VGA and PS/2 support and can stand alone without a computer powering it. Next planned features are SD card support and a lightweight programmable VM complete with a file editor and self-hosted assembler.

/** This is just a documentation thing. There is no code here!
This is like this because mbed's online compiler doesn't like regular textfiles apparently.
Built in word list:
*
+
-
/
` -- >0
! -- (value address) *address <- value
? -- (address) push *address
= -- (val1, val2) push val1==val2
Variables are implemented basically as constants.. sorta
Variable FOO
makes variable foo
10 FOO !; \in reality, FOO is just a constant to a place in memory.
FOO ?
In this way, everything stays stack based and easy to implement, but there are still variables.
