It's amazing,I just happened to read about PC@ in the manual and see the example in Forth.scr a few minutes ago. Once again, it pays to read the manual. The guys at Hacker Electronics in Chatsworth, set me up with a cool schematic for a simple circuit that I built. It consists of an LED and a photo-transister. A rototating disc, with a window in it breaks the beam, each revolution. This causes the phototransister to pull a neg. voltage. They assured me it will work even at 40,000 RPM ( whew! ). We will see. Thanks! NET/Mail : LMI Forth Board, Los Angeles, CA (213) 306-3530 <<<>>> ----- This message came from GEnie via willett. You *cannot* reply to the author using e-mail.
