Some updates about the project:

•  @Eelco provided ADC support for STM8L devices, and he also fixed an issue with the RTC code
• there are activities to bring the e4thcom method to Windows (Windows 10 WSL would be a nice way to sidestep restrictions on file names)
• some of the docs on GitHub have been updated for social criteria (avoid frightening first time visitors with Forth jargon etc.)

Even though the dominance of low-end STM8S devices for low-cost electronics in China has come to a surprisingly sudden end the STM8 eForth community is doing well. The current focus is on custom PCBs, and on boards where replacing a Nuvoton MCS51 controller with a STM8S003F3P6 is worth the effort.

I'm right now hacking a quick replacement for a PIC16F84 based solar heating control that I made about 15 years ago (thanks to STM8 eForth making new is much more attractive than repairing a prototype board with a rats nest of wires ;-) ).
