Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

I only mentioned it as earlier comment said rpi's hard to get and I don't use mine much.

  matherp said  Fabgl doesn't currently support the S2 or S3 chips and uses the Arduino IDE so that's two good reasons it isn't an option.

I guess you’re not a fan of the Arduino IDE, we all have our preferences, but what is it that the Original ESP32 is missing that that the S2 and S3 chips have that means that it won’t run MMBASIC?

Thanks.  Sorry for scratching at old wounds.  I work with some very good programmers that would rather rewrite code for themselves than utilise/learn someone elses code they feel is less than optimum.  I get it.  I'm not that good a programmer.

BTW, I wasn't suggesting that the FabGL code itself be used, only that MMBasic support what I referred to as the FabGL hardware.  It's really just a standardization of the VGA, PS/2, SD and audio interfaces.  The hardware design is open source, and there are several manufacturers, and like the PicoMite(VGA), it is simple enough to breadboard up and get working.  All it's missing is a decent BASIC interpreter.  I don't consider emulating a DOS machine and running GWBASIC as decent.

Hi Hawk, I got esp32 board with vga,ps2 mouse & keyboard but unless I use arduino ide then no other way I know to use it and I don't do c so waste. The fabgl support is c.
Be thankful for picomite if you can't do c.
