MENU: A FORTH menu compiler
Conference
·
OSTI ID:6741741
Menu-driven command interpreters are an effective means of controlling portable instrumentation where input may be limited to a hex keypad and output to a few lines on a liquid crystal display. The MENU compiler uses the name fields from the words comprising the menu options as prompt strings. It produces compact program code, thus conserving memory that is often limited in ROM-based systems. Input for menu function selection is vectored to allow switching between input sources. The host system consists of the eight-bit Motorola M68HC11 processor and Max-FORTH (FORTH-83).
