It's being prototyped using the MSP432 launchpad platform and has thirty-two I2C sensors, receiving ~300Kbps of data each on all four i2c ports, and streams the data to an SD card using SD over SPI. The basic platform could have application in quite a few projects, and so I thought Forth might be the perfect development environment.

So now I'm looking for where the Mecrisp community (and msp432 sub-community) hang out.

I've worked with Mecrisp, but it was on an ARM based launchpad.  I 
recall I had trouble loading the download driver as TI never bothered to 
get it signed, so installing it required jumping through all manner of 
hoops.  Instead I used a Raspberry Pi where the appropriate driver 
worked just fine.

I ended up controlling the target board remotely from my PC which worked 
ok until I needed to reset it.  Then I used sneaker net.

I did have trouble figuring out how to use a terminal emulator in the 
pi.  Seems just a plain command window is actually a "terminal" and the 
support for terminal emulators is very crude.  The programs I found did 
not work as documented and I had to figure out ways around the issues. 
It's been a couple of years, so I don't recall much of the details.
