On your page that describes setup you should also point out,(sorry if I missed it) you need to run modules.py and select a program to install as uber.forth.
serial connection requires local echo and crlf and delbs swap.
(trusty)mmh@localhost:~/esp/forth/esp-open-rtos/examples/punyforth/arch/esp8266/bin$ picocom /dev/ttyUSB4 -b 115200 --omap crlf --echo --imap delbs
picocom v1.7
port is : /dev/ttyUSB4
flowcontrol : none
baudrate is : 115200
parity is : none
databits are : 8
escape is : C-a
local echo is : yes
noinit is : no
noreset is : no
nolock is : no
send_cmd is : sz -vv
receive_cmd is : rz -vv
imap is : delbs,
omap is : crlf,
emap is : crcrlf,delbs,
Terminal ready

BTW this is a really cool program very light weight.
Yes, I agree that this need to be clarified a bit more as it confused other people too. Probably I'll write a separate page about this and link it to the readme.
Hi,
I added a new page https://github.com/zeroflag/punyforth/wiki/Developing-Punyforth-applications
Let me know if you think there is anything missing.
Hello,
May be you can add the ability to send files as soon as you have flashed punyforth.
I am using Tera Term as the terminal emulator and it let me send files by simply doing a drag n drop of the file. I've seen that Picocom let you send files too.
I other words you don't need to reflash your source as long as it's not working/perfect but in case of crash or reset you need to resend your file(s).
Add something like
-mytest
marker: -mytest
at the beginning of your file and you're ready!
Good point, I'll add this too.
I added a short section about sending files, and using the marker: word.
