It's going to be hard to beat the one from UU1 though

Hmm. Can you force a printer to use colour to print black?
19:46
<@abudhabi>
I once had a printer that just used whatever it had slotted in. If there wasn't any black cartridge, it used colour, and vice versa.
19:46
<@abudhabi>
This one won't even print unless both cartridges are slotted in.

ToxicFrog: back when you were working with notForth, what was the actual chip you were targeting?
23:42
<&ToxicFrog>
McMartin: Atmel AVR ATMega328
23:42
<&ToxicFrog>
I avoided chip-specific code, though
23:42
<&ToxicFrog>
Why?
23:47
<&McMartin>
Because I thought it was an AVR but wasn't sure and then when I looked at what chips went on arduinos I became even less sure.
23:47
<&McMartin>
This was mainly part of "hey, I can imagine something I would do with one of those consumer microcontrollers now"
23:48
<&McMartin>
(Which is "hook it to one of the more primitive sound generator chips, make a chiptune keyboard out of switches")
23:49
<&ToxicFrog>
notforth is probably not performant enough for that, since it's an interpreter, not a recompiler~
23:50
<&McMartin>
Fortunately for me I usually write in assembly language~
23:50
<&McMartin>
And the ATMega328 is the one that has a multiply instruction
23:50
<&ToxicFrog>
A useful thing to have indeed
23:53
<&McMartin>
It does not, however, have a divide instruction, which makes chips like the AY-3-8910 slightly more inconvenient to drive.
