Thanks Richard for the clarification of COM/OLE support in BBC BASIC.

Hi Richard,

Great to see BBC Basic on so many platforms.

Does the Windows version support COM/OLE?

ScriptBasic creates a standalone executable by appending the interpreter with the binary version of the script source. It also allows compiling to C which the interpreter becomes a DLL / shared object resource.

ScriptBasic / Re: Amazon Sidewalk

I received my Amazon Sidewalk test kit on Monday. The test kit shows bridge devices (Alexa / Ring doorbells) in my area. (green dots) I'm just getting started looking at the developer API. The test kit device is about the size of a Bic lighter. The idea is to take it with you when you drive around to see the Sidewalk network connectivity.

Sensor Controller Studio is used to write, test and debug code for the CC26xx/CC13xx Sensor Controller, enabling ultra-low power application design. The tool generates an interface driver consisting of C source files with the firmware image, associated definitions, and generic functions that allow the System CPU application to control the Sensor Controller and exchange data.

I was just notified by the Amazon Sidewalk support group that my test kit is on the way. Time to dust off my RPi's and brush up on the GPIO bus.

I may become more active on the forum once my test kit arrives.

Thanks Richard for keeping us updated with releases.

I haven't been playing with my array of RPi's so I don't have much to share.

I recently moved from Anacortes north to Lynden WA which is 5 miles from the Canadian boarder. Lynden has over 8,000 acres of Raspberry farms serving 70% of the US market.

Lynden has a population of 12,500 people.

Thanks Richard for posting your updates to the forum.

I was really hoping Eric Olson joining the forum would increase activity. He joined and I haven't heard from him since.

BBC BASIC / Re: BBC BASIC for the Raspberry Pi Pico
« on: August 26, 2021, 09:51:43 PM »
That is amazing Richard. I gave up on the Pico as just being an embedded controller toy.

I may give this a try on my ESP32 which should triple the amount of user memory available. Micro Python runs great on it. It would be great to see if we can get BBC BASIC running on the ESP32-PICO. Any chance there is interest here making it work?

BBC BASIC / Re: New: Console Mode editions of BBC BASIC

I use Ubuntu 64 on all my Linux based systems. I never thought I would go back to a 32 bit OS again but the RPI was cheap enough so I lived through it.

My RPi 4B 8GB has been running 24/7 for over three months running Ubuntu 64. It seems I have to do a Gitlab-ce update at lest once a week. I'm running Ubuntu in full graphic UI mode (not as a server) and still have 4 GB of memory in reserve.

The only thing I use 32 bit Raspian for is my Zero Windows USB dongle OS.

I'm not going down that rabbit hole with 64 bit on the RPi 4B and anything else they offer going forward.

You would think the Raspberry Pi Foundation would have learned their lesson trying to offer your own OS. Microsoft is struggling trying to keep Windows relevant.
