I think it would be nice to have Oberon running on the bare metal of the Raspberry Pi. 

So I have been working on it and I have reached a milestone. I have retargeted the Oberon07 compiler sufficiently to create an ARM binary that, when placed on the rpi SD card, gets loaded by the rpi firmware and blinks the LED.

A little video: http://kuracali.com/Blink.MOV

Here is the source code to the successfully compiled module:

The compiled code is spectacularly inefficient. But it works!

Cheers,

Chuck
