Has anyone considered writing/porting a native Forth environment for the gp2x? Other implementations exist for ARM platforms. Other than being huge fun to implement, it may actually be useful: Forth is a good fit for small systems, has been used to write games in the past (I know I used a few versions on the C64 when I was a kid, and Atari used to write many console games using it).

I might give it a go myself, but it's been a long time since I wrote any assembly, and that was x86 and 6502, not ARM. I've also never coded assembly for multi-processor systems. From what Ive been reading ARM assembly seems really nice, even if it does lack a stack.

Any comments and/or advice would be appreciated ;)
