Folie v2

The Forth Live Explorer is a command-line utility to talk to a micro-controller via a (local or remote) serial port. Its main mode of operation is as interactive terminal, but it can also upload code to an STM32 µC and is tailored in particular for use with Mecrisp Forth.

This is experimental code, the stable version is at:
