im making one. you have heard about it. ill post devlog stuff here

semaphore

#1
tonight:

> git commit -m 'how i allocated 65536 bytes a day by writing my own sbrk, parsing my own commands, and being my own boss'

got rp2040 running a repl over usb serial and confirmed my gba allocator code works on rp2040 too, which is particularly a win because it means my `ewram` section is actually ending up in ram like i wanted it to

next i need to figure out how to get a task system running i think so usb can live in a little task and talk to other stuff with channels

downside of writing your own command repl: i cant backspace because i didnt implement it lol

lifning

i greatly appreciate the "write a gba program and then turn anything else into a gba compatibility layer" approach of achieving cross-platform support

I'm using https://docs.rs/noline/latest/noline/ in my silly little RP2040 project for this exact reason. It gets things "right enough".
