I found a message on the net,  
[http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/65582](http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/65582)  
that talks about generating c-code and asm-code for AVR  
microcontrollers.

However, this is the only I have ever seen of it. How does he do the  
conversion? Could you make ruby methods like “flashled(port)” and  
“toggleled(port)” that executes C/ASM code using inline? How would the  
C/ASM generation work?

🙂

Lots of questions, I know. But doing low and midlevel coding in C/ASM  
and highlevel and flow in Ruby sounds delicious 🙂
