This is a recording of my mini-Forth running a complete test inside an Arduino UNO. I implemented this in C++ in the afternoons after work.

So-much-fun! :-)

Visit https://github.com/ttsiodras/MiniForth/ to build and run it yourself.

While this site doesn't offer GIF conversion at the moment, you can still do it yourself with the help of asciinema GIF generator utility - agg.

Once you have it installed run the following command to create GIF file:

agg https://asciinema.org/a/423649 423649.gif

Or, if you already downloaded the recording file:

agg 423649.cast 423649.gif

Check agg --help for all available options. You can change font family and size, select color theme, adjust speed and more.

See agg manual for full usage instructions.
