Yes, but, ye gods, it's crap. Imagine if you will a programming language
that can have at most forty-some variables per program and about as many
conditionals, and in which all but 3K of the machine's 32K of RAM is
consumed by the horrible interpreter which runs what you upload to the
embedded processor.

It's not a sane programming language. It's aimed at six-year-olds, and
it shows. (And, at that, I was doing ZX81 assembler by the time I was
six... perhaps at four-year-olds.)
