I got stuck mostly in setting up environments last night. I thought I hadn't really done much with my FIGnition yet, so I'd plug that in and go. It didn't take long to realize why I had been slow to really get full swing with it, QWERTY default. FIGkeys seems to allow most keys to be remapped, but requires a number pad. I decided to wait until tomorrow to get a PS2 or USB keyboard with a number pad.

Then I decided to get my BeagleBone Black setup. I tried Cloud9 a bit, but then decided to install Go. I forgot there weren't pre-built Go ARM/Linux packages. I pulled down Go from git, checked out the 1.4.1 tag, and started the build. When I realized it was going to take some time, I went on to the next thing.

Next thing was playing with the Launchpad some more trying to load mspforth, CamelForth, & Mecrisp, all without much luck of getting a serial connection. One thing that stuck out to me was that newer Launchpad boards potentially changed the USB serial pins. As a last ditch, even though none of the Forths seemed to support it, I fired up my new MSP430F5969 Launchpad, but Energia said I needed to update the drivers, which failed on Linux. Had to download a tool from TI that appeared to repair it. Tried again, and the update failed again. After repairing a second time, I decided to call it a night.

Overall, I didn't touch much code, but I did a bit with MSP430 assembly with naken_asm => msp430-gcc conversion, but nothing really worth posting.
