JBit 1.2 native/javascript

JBit is small Java application for mobile phones (MIDlet) that gives you a programmable 8-bit microcomputer. With JBit, you can edit, save, run, and debug assembly (6502) programs directly on your phone. You can also develop a 6502 assembly application on your desktop and install it on any MIDP-enabled device.



RELEASE NOTES: A new codebase targeting PCs and modern browsers (IE8+) is available. The native version (written in C++) includes a device (xv65) which provides the familiar Unix system calls (write, pipe, dup, fork, exec, etc.) to 6502 programs. You can now issue a FORK request to the IO chip (or call fork() on cc65), and you'll have two concurrent processes running your 6502 code. The webapp version (written in JavaScript, but sharing the embedded assembler with the native version via C++/emscripten) simulates the simpler MicroIO device and can be used to learn and practice 6502 programming on a Web browser.
