The Extended Oberon System is a revision of the Project Oberon 2013 operating system and its compiler.
Note: In this repository, the term "Project Oberon 2013" refers to a re-implementation of the original "Project Oberon" on an FPGA development board around 2013, as published at www.projectoberon.com.
Features
- Programming language Oberon-2 (2020 Edition) defined as a superset of the Oberon-07 language
- Safe module unloading and module finalization
- System building and maintenance tools
- Smooth line scrolling with variable line spaces
- Multiple logical displays
- Improved decoder tools
- Improved import/export, e.g. import any number of modules and in any order
- Simple batch execution facility

To obtain Extended Oberon:
- Download the compressed archive S3RISCinstall.tar.gz from this repository
To run Extended Oberon in an emulator (e.g., http://github.com/pdewacht/oberon-risc-emu):
- Backup your existing S3RISCinstall directory
- Uncompress the downloaded archive in the emulator directory S3RISCinstall
- On Unix/Linux/Mac, run the command tar xvzf S3RISCinstall.tar.gz
- On Windows, use one of the available Zip tools such as WinZip, 7-Zip, ...
- Restart the emulator
To run Extended Oberon on a FGPA development board:
- Uncompress the downloaded archive
- On Unix/Linux/Mac, run the command tar xvzf S3RISCinstall.tar.gz
- On Windows, use one of the available Zip tools, such as WinZip, 7-Zip, ...
- Transfer the file RISC.img to an SD-card as a raw image (do not simply copy the file)
- On Unix/Linux/Mac, run the command ls -l RISC.img (to get the file size of RISC.img) followed by the command dd if=RISC.img of=/dev/sdc bs=1024 count=filesize (replace /dev/sdc with the device name on your system and filesize with the actual file size)
- On Windows, use one of the available SD tools, such as Win32 Disk Imager, ...
- Insert the SD-card in the FPGA board/daughterboard, verify that everything is connected
- Cold-start the FPGA board/daughterboard by pressing the appropriate button on the board
