ANNOUNCE: Start Ajhc project with forking jhc.

Hi all. I am a user of jhc Haskell compiler. Jhc can compile Haskell code to micro arch such as Cortex-M3. I have written LED blinking demo for Cortex-M3 with jhc. Very fun! https://github.com/ajhc/demo-cortex-m3 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3R9sogReVHg And I created many patches for jhc. But...I think that the upstream author of jhc, John Meacham, can't pull the contribution speedy, because he is too busy. It's difficult that maintain many patches without any repositories, for me. Then, I have decided to fork jhc, named Ajhc. # pain full... http://ajhc.github.com/ I will feedback Ajhc's big changes to jhc mailing list. Or I am so happy if John joins Ajhc project. Regards, -- Kiwamu Okabe

This is exciting! I wasn't aware that Jhc targeted such devices.
Then, I have decided to fork jhc, named Ajhc.
Good luck with Ajhc! I really look forward to trying it. I'll give you my feedback once I do. Regards, Renzo.

Very cool!

What is the cortex m3 board you are experimenting with? looks like it
could be a Maple Mini https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11280 ?
if so, getting it in 20k of ram is quite impressive :) I only tested
against larger ARM processors such as tablets/cell phones.

Now I am testing STM32 F3 Discovery. http://www.st.com/web/en/catalog/tools/FM116/SC959/SS1532/PF254044

It's your great product jhc's power. ;) But that demo does not use Haskell heap. # Don't call s_alloc function. Now I am trying fix bug on my custom jhc RTS. Thank's, -- Kiwamu Okabe
